USC did not have a good Saturday against Oregon. The Trojans, who technically had an extra day to prepare because of a Friday night game the week before, got blown out in front of Trojan parents and many recruits who visited the Coliseum. The loss means that USC no longer controls its own destiny in the Pac-12. Even if USC wins out, USC needs Utah to drop one against a conference opponent to win the Pac-12 championship. If USC loses another conference game, its Pac-12 title hopes are essentially nonexistent.
So with nothing but pride and bowl eligibility to play for, what should fans expect in the Trojans’ visit to Tempe Arizona?
