The USC Trojans football team saw four of their players, including Heisman Trophy Candidate Matt Barkley, named to the 2013 Senior Bowl watch list on Thursday. Khaled Holmes, Wes Horton, and T.J. McDonald join Barkley on the first ever official watch list for the game.
Barkley has also been named to the Davey O'Brien, Manning, and Maxwell Award watch lists for the 2012 season. He chose to forego the NFL Draft and return for his senior year after throwing for 3,528 yards and 39 touchdowns as a junior.
The Senior Bowl picks the top 100 seniors each year to compete in a postseason game that allows them to showcase their skills for professional scouts against the best competition in the country. This year's event will take place Jan. 26 at Ladd-Peebles Stadium in Mobile, Ala.
