Fallen Trojan

Notre Dame rival USC took a hit Wendsday.

An MRI taken Wednesday revealed the crack on the head of quarterback Aaron Corp's left fibula. The small crack in his left knee will keep Corp out about two weeks, The Associated Press reported. The redshirt sophomore suffered the injury when he was rolled onto by a lineman during Monday's practie. There was no ligament damage and surgery is not needed, according to the AP. Corp was chosen by Carroll as the Trojans' first-string quarterback coming out of spring practice. Freshman Matt Barkley will take all the first-team reps during Corp's absence. Veteran backup Mitch Mustain is also in the mix.

The Irish play USC on Oct. 17 at home this year. So one would guess if Corp is going to take over as the Trojans' signal caller this season, he will be fine be then.
