An arraignment A criminal proceeding at which the defendant is officially called before a court of competent jurisdiction, informed of the offense charged in the complaint, information, indictment, or other charging document, and asked to enter a plea of guilty, not guilty, or as otherwise permitted hearing is scheduled for Nov. 22 in Los Angeles Municipal Court. USC coach Pete Carroll said he would speak to a committee of players before deciding if Maualuga would play against Stanford on Saturday. --Tunnel update: The Pacific-10 Conference modified its tunnel policy after several USC players bumped into Washington State coach Bill Doba last weekend at halftime. Pac-10 rules state the team closest to the tunnel exits the field first, but Carroll wanted to be the first team because the Trojans traditionally run to the locker room. --Rivers unlikely: Linebacker Keith Rivers will probably miss the Stanford game because of a sore hamstring. He did not practice Tuesday.
