The Trojans defeated Arizona State 42-28 last weekend but the Sun Devils closed to within 24-21 in the third quarter and USC had to rally for the victory. As a result of the less-than-impressive road win, the Trojans dropped a few spots in the AP Top 25. Caleb Williams threw for three touchdowns and ran for two more.
Coach Deion Sanders and the Buffaloes were routed 42-6 by Oregon last weekend in Eugene for Colorado’s first loss of the season. Quarterback Shedeur Sanders was sacked seven times, exposing a troubling weakness with the Buffs’ offensive line. Shedeur Sanders is still considered one of the top quarterbacks in the Pac-12, averaging just more than 352 passing yards a game. He’s also thrown for 11 touchdowns.
