The offensive chant from our student section directed towards BYU during the football game last night does not align with our Trojan values.

It was distasteful and we apologize to the BYU program.

Jokes on them, they’re in a conference that doesn’t care much about sports.

Legally speaking, religion is a protected class. But I agree it’s not really

Lieutenant America

That is the best part of the whole thing. The same USC fans will chant "F the Mormons" at those same Ute fans, breaking

It’s stupidity mixed with bigotry. But mostly stupidity. Just win and shut them up

Unless they can get our name right then it just doesn't matter. COJCOLDS!

So then the prophet approved using that obnoxious acronym? Weird.

CougarLegend

Or you can just see the dumb humor and move along instead of getting upset

Oh - not upset. I genuinely am curious and think it's weird...

I'm guessing Notre Dame heard something similar at Stanford today

Mormon's aren't on the woke peoples protection list.

That's pretty harsh seeing that their starting QB is... a Mormon.

CougarCanuck76

11/28/21 12:56am

Also ironic for a student body that prides themselves on being so much smarter

Lieutenant America

11/28/21 12:57am

Smarter by having their parents bribe their way into college?

Huge Manatee

I never said they were actually smarter, but that’s what they tell everyone

Their QB, RB, NT, LB and many more on USC are members

But yeah, why would these recruits go to such a school?

They were recruited as high school kids.

Why use this insane acronym? Explain how it's truly any better than LDS?

It was a big deal with Arizona did it in 06. Wonder if USC will say anything. I'm guessing they won't.

A big deal to who? Did UA actually do something? Or you mean BYU fans made a big

UA did something. University president wrote a letter, it was a whole thing. After our first game at Gonzaga there

Their star LB, Larsen is LDS. I was there. Very unwelcoming game experience.

Romney's candidacy proved Mormon bias is fair game.

Not to be devil’s advocate, but it sounded like it may have been one small group

It probably wasn’t 10,000, but I don’t think 12 people could ever be loud

Well, 12 people constitutes the majority of USC fans in attendance.
