Here is USC All-American offensive tackle Pete Adams carrying a dog off the field in 1972, possibly at the Rose Bowl against Ohio State. According to J.K. McKay, a stray dog started hanging around that season and Adams adopted it, bringing it to team meetings and practices. And if this is the dog, he even made it to at least one game.

Actually Wolf, a worthwhile venture for you would be to start a campaign to get George Tirebiter back into the fold at USC.
I’d go for that !!!!!!! Adopt a mutt from the pound and have him be the team pet.
Yea Verily!!
Got’ta be way better than those two goofy mascots who parade about at Galen during basketball games.
I believe the dog’s name was Turd
You would be correct. The dog would ride around practice in McKay’s golf cart
Cool picture. Adams looks like he ate bRUINS for lunch.
I was at that Rose Bowl. Don’t remember a dog but I sure do remember Ohio State getting their butt’s whipped but good.
Did the dog fall into some white paint? If so, it could be the spittin’ image of Westwood Robs avatar…who he perceives as being a mean, vicious bruin bear when in actuality it appears to be as docile as a loveable lap dog or a rich ol’ ladies puddy tat.
Say you otherwise and Mr. Rob has a hissey fit.

Larenzo, you old skeezicks, maybe you need new glasses. You probably can’t tell the difference between Chewbacca and Gene Shalit.
You mean Gollom-Wolf in his Chewbacca outfit?
Now the NZCAA would say the dog was an agent and penalize SC.
They would say Tirebiter got an extra benefit when a booster game him a dog biscuit.
Slip your leash have you?
You can be the official pooper scooper for Tirebiter. This could be a big opportunity for you. We all know deep down you want to be a Trojan, thats why you spend so much time on this blog surrounded by SC people.
Sad but true.
Just to clarify…that’s Turd.
You millenials are too young to remember but UCLA used to have a live bear roaming the sidelines of all home games. Coach Pappy O’Connor used to call it good good luck charm when it got close to the other team’s bench and the players would freak out.
