Back-ups shine as USC dominates Arizona 41-14.

The USC Trojans was in for a challenge with the Arizona Wildcats coming in for homecoming weekend. Arizona had an offense led by a dynamic quarterback in Khalil Tate and that ranked ninth in the nation. With that plus four defensive starters out for the game, the Trojans defense was in for a test. They managed to pass that test with flying colors. With the USC offense struggling in the first quarter, the defense stepped up and shutdown Arizona’s offense. USC managed to fluster and contain Tate in the backfield. They also sacked the Wildcats senior quarterback 5 times in the first half.
