Century Club

USC will open the 2010 season with a Thursday night game at Hawaii (5:30 pm, Honolulu start). It will only be the third time in its history that USC has opened its season on a Thursday.
The last time was in 1988, a Thursday night game at Boston College. The first was in 1891, when USC's first game of the season was a Thanksgiving game against Olive Club.
If you are keeping score, that is one Thursday opening per century, although the Trojans have another 90 years to schedule another Thursday opener in the 21st century.
