Answer 2

I have since talked to some older alumni about an answer I posted earlier. I believed the tradition started in 1977. They told me the tradition pre-dated 1977. One of the people I asked was former coach John Robinson. None knew when or how the tradition started.

Answer 3

I believe the 2 finger tradition started in 1977 when I was a sophomore at USC. The university, which was established in 1880, made plans to celebrate its centennial in 1980 by launching a celebration called "Toward Century II". When an announcement was made at one of the football games about USC's pending second century as an academic institution some in the student section stood up and held up two fingers and started humming/singing along with the music as they do today. All the students joined in and waved two fingers for "Toward Century II". That's how I remember it. Though its origin may have been mostly forgotten, it's become a lasting tradition.
