Youthful Trojans Will Play for National Title Again

Associated Press

LOS ANGELES - Center Ryan Kalil, one of the few seniors on the Southern California roster who plays on a regular basis, smiled when the question was posed:
Have the Trojans accomplished enough in the past five years to be considered a dynasty?

“I would call it fun,” Kalil replied Tuesday. “I know we’ve won a lot of games, been in championship games over the years and we might be in another one.

“Having fun is the most important thing. The way Pete Carroll coaches, we could be 12-0 and if it wasn’t fun, that wouldn’t be enough. It’s a fun thing, especially at the college level. I’ll never have a chance to play for a team like this again.”

Carroll’s teams are 55-3 since the middle of the 2002 season — his second as the Trojans’ coach. The three losses have been by a total of eight points, with the most recent a 33-31 setback at Oregon State on Oct. 28.
