Wounded Trojans To Face Pac-10's Top Defense

TEMPE, Ariz (AP) ― The Arizona State Sun Devils hoped Southern California might have a letdown after a big victory over Oregon.

So much for that plan.

Drubbed by 27 points in Eugene last weekend, the 12th-ranked Trojans figure to be in a bad mood when they show up for Saturday night's game at Sun Devil Stadium. The loss dropped USC from fourth in The Associated Press Top 25 to a tie for fourth place in the Pac-10 and seemingly eliminated the Trojans (6-2, 3-2 Pac-10) as a national title contender.

Arizona State coach Dennis Erickson says USC's track record after losing is pretty good.

Indeed, USC hasn't had back-to-back losses since a four-game skid early in Pete Carroll's debut 2001 season. The Trojans snapped that slump with a 48-17 rout of ASU.
