Countdown to Kickoff: 43 Days

As we continue on our daily countdown towards the 2007 season, we have now arrived at 43. Current Trojan linebacker Kaluka Maiava and former Trojan and 2003 1st round pick of the Pittsburgh Steelers Troy Polamalu are two recent players who have proudly worn jersey #43...

Maiava is a 6'0" 225 pound junior linebacker and is a key special teams performer and will be the top backup at the Will, or weakside, linebacker spot behind the All-World Keith Rivers.

Polamalu is a Trojan legend and was one of the key players who helped Pete Carroll restore glory at USC. Now he flourishing in the NFL and is without question one of the best defensive backs in the league.

Fight On!
