they are charged with 2 time outs, one each half. i like what pete carroll is trying to do he is trying to bring back tradition. the last time usc and uclgay wore home jerseys was in 1982.

The Pac-10's interpretation of the team wearing the wrong colored jersey is that they are penalized a timeout at the start of the game. UCLA is taking USC's side in the dispute. The Bruins plan to call their own timeout immediately after USC is assessed that penalty at the start of the game to even it out.

they are doing it because both teams used to wear their home jerseys back in the day, so usc is trying to bring the tradition back.

the rose bowl is uclgays home field, the coliseum is usc's home field. when ever we play at the rose bowl vs uclgay were the away team so we have to wear away jerseys. last time both teams wore home jerseys at the rose bowl was in 82 it was a tradition for a while when sc and uclgay would play. they changed it and carroll wants to bring it back.
