As USC Football returned to Howard Jones Field to get ready for the 2017 Cotton Bowl, the Trojans are treating this like a “typical work week,” head coach Clay Helton said on Tuesday.
In that sense, USC’s prep for the bowl game will look somewhat familiar. As they did ahead of the Rose Bowl, the Trojans will look to get in a week of practice as though they were preparing for a game on Saturday. Tuesday’s full pads practice will give way to a shells practice on Wednesday, then no pads on Thursday and a walkthrough on Friday.
