#8 Arizona State avoids second straight upset loss, survives USC 41-35
TEMPE -- HB Steve Williams ran for 199 yards and 3 scores and the defense produced 3 turnovers, which proved just enough for the Sun Devils to sneak past USC. The Trojans came into the contest having struggled mightily to start the season, but looked sharp throughout in what was a back-and-forth affair. A key INT by Kyle Logan and and Williams' 3rd score proved to be the difference late.
With the win, Arizona State avoids its first losing streak since 2016 and moves to 6-1 on the season. Thanks to Boise State's upset loss to UCLA, the two are now tied for the Pac-12 South lead.
