USC's Top 10 Plays From The 2009 Season

10. Anthony McCoy destroys San Jose State defender
9. Damian Williams returns punt for a touchdown vs. Oregon State
8. Damian Williams catches a pass, runs with for 75+ yards down the field for a touchdown vs. Arizona State
7. Trojan defense stops Notre Dame on 4th and 1, resulting in a turnover on downs and preventing what could have been a field goal or a touchdown.
6. Joe McKnight jukes several San Jose State defenders and runs it all the way for a touchdown.
5. Damian Williams returns a punt for a touchdown vs. Cal, the first touchdown scored from a punt return since the 2005 season.
4. Taylor Mays' freakish speed is displayed against Cal as he runs down Jahvid Best on 3rd and 1, resulting in a 4th down, forcing Cal to punt.
3. Matt Barkley throws an amazing deep pass to Damian Williams, who catches it in triple coverage. A touchdown on the next play is the result.
2. Matt Barkley throws a 48-yard touchdown pass to Damian Williams vs. UCLA. On the previous play, USC took a knee in attempt to run down the clock, but Rick Neuheisel called a timeout and would not let the Trojans end the game so easily. USC responds to Neuheisel's idiocy and arrogance by throwing a long touchdown pass.
1. Stafon Johnson scores the game-winning touchdown versus Ohio State with a little over 1 minute left in the 4th quarter. A few weeks later Stafon suffered a severe throat injury in a weightlifting accident. A few months later he recovered in full and will enter the NFL draft.

good list. i'd take out the chris gallipo play and find a place for Allen Bradfords run against oregon st and/or Rojo's catch against oregon st

[CaliforniasGold]

to be honest there were just so many plays to choose from that i knew there would be some plays that might be left out... the plays you mentioned are great too don't get me wrong.

Matt Barkley will be the greatest USC QB ever. If he stays his Sr. year, the Trojans will win a bowl game and he'll be a strong Heisman Canidate
