USC has had five number one draft picks: Ron Yary, O.J. Simpson, Ricky Bell, Keyshawn Johnson, and Carson Palmer. UCLA has only had one number one draft pick which is Troy Aikman. So USC has had four more number one draft picks.

Offensive Tackle Ron Yary (USC) was drafted first in 1968 by the Minnesota Vikings. Running Back O.J. Simpson (USC) was drafted first in 1969 by the Buffalo Bills.
