Could this be the most “respectable” loss USC has ever had?

Andrew Luck captured most headlines, but Matt Barkley didn’t hurt his stock either by Completing 28 of 45 passes and throwing for 284 yards with 3 touchdown passes.

Curtis McNeal had a career-best performance rushing 145 yards, 2 touchdowns, and averaging 7.1 yards per carry.

Despite the loss, recent games have shown the the Trojans are heading in the right direction. Losing to an undefeated Stanford team led by a Heisman candidate in triple overtime does not change that.

Highlights await!
