USC Football Practice Notes: Greg Johnson to start vs. UNLV

On Wednesday, USC football took one step closer to starting the 2018 season, and it was a very welcome step.

“We’ve been hitting each other now for the last four weeks and we’re ready to go play somebody,” head coach Clay Helton said after practice on Howard Jones Field.

The Trojans are in the process of putting the finishing touches on their UNLV gameplan, working on third down situations on Wednesday specifically.

Containing Rebel quarterback Armani Rogers, a dual-threat passer with explosive running ability, was a particular focus.

That’ll be the job of a Trojan defense with major expectations on their shoulders.
