USC men's golf knows what's at stake. The program has never won a national title, but the 2012 NCAA Championships are in the Trojans' backyard at Riviera Country Club.
In the opening round Tuesday, USC showed some jitters posting a +14 to finish tied for 22nd after day one. The men's tournament features three days of medal play after which the field is cut down to eight teams for single elimination match play.
The Trojans have some work to do, but they have the talent and local knowledge to make up strokes in a hurry.
