Stafon Johnson

Stafon is a 6-1, 210 lbs, promising sophomore from California who has run well for USC this year. Lightly used in 2006, he had strong outings against Nebraska and Washington this season, going over the 100 yard mark in each game. Though an injury kept Johnson from playing in the game against Stanford, so far this season he has gained 378 yards on 46 attempts, giving him an average of 8.2 yards a carry. In USC's early season victory against Nebraska, Johnson was named Pac-10 Offensive player of the week after a career-best 144 yard performance. A local prep standout, Johnson set an L.A City high school career record with 5,777 yards rushing, and added 58 touchdowns in the process.

Chauncey Washington

Chauncey is another 6-2, 210 lbs, tailback out of California. A Junior, he enjoyed a successful 2006 campaign netting 744 yards on 147 carries and scoring nine touchdowns for the Trojans. Having missed two seasons earlier in his college career due to academic ineligibility, Washington is making up for lost time this season, posting 308 yards and five touchdowns through USC's first five games. Like Johnson, Chauncey also enjoyed a storied high school football career, and doubled as a track star running a 10.5 100 meters while in school.

Hershel Dennis

Dennis is the old man of the group. He is a sixth-year Senior who has never lived up to expectations due to injuries. However, the lightning quick runner has gained over 900 yards for the Trojans during his college career, despite losing playing time in the past to Reggie Bush and LenDale White. This year Dennis has appeared in two games for USC, gaining 48 yards on the ground for them.

C.J. Gable

Despite being a Sophomore, Gable has plenty of experience running the ball for USC having gained 434 yards for them on the ground as a Freshman. C.J. also handled some kick off returning duties, averaging over 27 yards a return for the team. This year Gable has remained in the rotation, adding 143 yards rushing in only 13 carries.
