LOS ANGELES -- JuJu Smith-Schuster had a plate and a screw surgically installed in the palm of his broken right hand only five days earlier, so Southern California's star receiver had to make eight catches for 138 yards using "all fingers," he said with a grin.

Although the Trojans are all hanging onto the chance for a memorable season by their fingertips, a gritty comeback win over Arizona improved their grip.

Ronald Jones II caught a touchdown pass and rushed for 177 yards, including a 74-yard scoring run late in USC's third straight victory, 38-30 over the slumping Wildcats on Saturday night.
