FILE - In this Sept. 2, 2010 file photo, Southern California athletic director Pat Haden watches the third quarter of an NCAA college football game between USC and Hawaii, at Aloha Stadium in Honolulu.

The Trojans will have a new quarterback and are still dealing with a roster limited by NCAA sanctions. They won’t enter the season No. 1 like last year. Expectations are far more modest, which both Kiffin and Haden, say is a good thing. (AP Photo/Eugene Tanner, File)
