Dion Bailey and Hayes Pullard have faced big challenges in their first season as starting linebackers for USC.
None were as large as the one awaiting Saturday against unbeaten Stanford.
The Cardinal features three tight ends, all 6 feet 6 or taller.
Coby Fleener, Zach Ertz and Levine Toilolo form a triple threat that can be deployed along the line, spread out wide and even in the backfield, often at the same time.
