Can UW knock off the Trojans?

When he was the coach at Washington, USC head coach Steve Sarkisian used two wins against USC to help propel his program forward. Now, Chris Petersen is looking for the same type of victory as his Huskies prepare to take on Sarkisian's No.17 ranked Trojans.

Sarkisian called those two victories over USC "really helpful" in terms of establishing a culture of winning at UW.

“To go in and get two consecutive wins against (USC) at the time when we were at Washington,” Sarkisian said, according to The News Tribune.
