The USC Trojans have been a thorn in ASU’s side for decades.
With few aberrations like the 2014 Jael Mary, the Trojans have easily won most of the meetings between the schools on the gridiron. Including the last three seasons, where the outcome of the game was decided before halftime.
A main reason for Arizona State’s struggles against USC has been lacking the talent necessary to beat a powerhouse program like the Trojans.
With the Sun Devils entering the contest losing four of their last five games, it’s not an ideal scenario to enter the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum and take on a team perfect at home this season.
