USC travels to Corvallis to face Oregon State in an attempt to get back on the winning side. The Trojans are currently sitting with a 4-4 record, 3-3 in conference and sitting two games back in the Pac-12 South following their loss to Arizona State. On Monday Clay Helton made significant changes, firing offensive line coach Neil Callaway, making running back coach Tim Drevno interm offensive line coach, and stripping offensive coordinator Tee Martin of play calling duties, announcing that he would be calling plays during games.
The changes come after the USC offense showed no signs of improving as the season went.
