The Obvious: Lincoln Riley’s 2023 USC football team will conclude its allotted 15 days of spring practices with the annual spring game this Saturday at noon (PT) in the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, and it will be open and free to the general public. The Not So Obvious: The Trojans are expected to be named a 2023 preseason Top 10 team, and Saturday will give USC fans a chance to make some observations and analysis for themselves. There's a lot of roster changes from 2022, and fans will want to see all the high-level transfer newcomers along with some high-profile true freshmen. There's certainly enough going on in Lincoln Riley's second spring game to warrant coming to the Coliseum to find out what all the preseason commotion is all about.
