That’s one.
Upset that is.

The Thursday night upset bug bit #7/6/6 Arizona State in the butt last night as the #11/12/11 USC Trojans mugged Rudy Carpenter and crew 44-24. Carpenter got knocked to the ground time and time again as the Trojans’ defense recorded six sacks and limited the Sun Devils to just 16 yards on 35 attempts.

With the win, USC puts itself in position for a Rose Bowl berth. All it will take is a win over UCLA next week and one Oregon loss. The latter seemed unlikely a few weeks ago but with Dennis Dixon out for the year, the Ducks will have a tough time against both UCLA and Oregon State. Either or both could take Oregon out of the picture.
