Trojans go for win No. 750
Los Angeles, CA (Sports Network) - For the second straight week, the now 13th- ranked USC Trojans will attempt to record the 750th victory in school history, as they welcome the Oregon State Beavers to Los Angeles, for Pac-10 action this weekend.Pete Carroll's squad failed in its first bid at the milestone, dropping a 24-17 decision at Oregon last week. More importantly, the loss all but ended the team's bid at an unprecedented sixth straight Pac-10 title, with the Trojans now sitting at 3-2 in league play.
The Beavers are a team that could present yet another problem for USC, as Oregon State has won three straight games to move to 5-3 overall and 3-2 in league action. Last weekend, the Beavers disposed of Stanford, 23-6.
USC has owned this series, with a 57-9-4 record dating back to 1914. OSU however, won last year's shocker in Corvallis. Still, Oregon State's futility away in this series is vast, having not won in Los Angeles since 1960.
Replacing tailback Yvenson Bernard after halftime, Matthew Sieverson ran for 68 yards, in leading the Beavers to the 23-6 victory over Stanford last week. QB Sean Canfield did the rest, throwing for 142 yards, but more importantly, no turnovers. It was the ground game that was the deciding factor though, as OSU amassed 173 yards rushing in the win. A balanced offense (381.8 ypg) relies heavily on Bernard (101.8 ypg, 10 TDs) to get things done on the ground. If a shoulder injury keeps him out of the lineup this week, the Beavers will need a yeoman's effort from Sieverson and company to get the job done. Canfield has played to mixed reviews under center. He has completed nearly 60 percent of his passes, but has thrown just eight TDs compared to 13 interceptions. Bernard is such a big part of the offense, as he not only leads the team in rushing, but in receiving as well. Bernard has 32 receptions to pace the team, although Anthony Brown (30 receptions, for 418 yards and one TD) is the top option downfield.
Defensively, the Beavers have been superb, holding foes to just 299.9 yards of offense per outing. The team has been particularly stout against the run, leading the nation in rushing defense at just 54.5 yards per game (1.6 ypc). This is a defense that thrives on big plays, with 21 forced turnovers and 22 sacks to its credit. Senior LB Joey LaRocque leads the team in tackles (53) and TFLs (8.0), completing a strong stat line with 3.0 sacks, one interception and one fumble recovery. The pass rush is one of the best in the Pac-10 and the nation for that matter, with players like junior DEs Slade Norris (6.5 sacks) and Victor Butler (6.0 sacks) and senior DE Dorian Smith (5.0 sacks) all getting upfield and creating problems for opposing QBs.
It was three costly second half turnovers that did in USC last week in Eugene. The miscues stifled the Trojans in the game, with USC managing 378 yards of total offense. A prolific ground game was neutralized, coming up with only 101 yards, while QB Mark Sanchez, once again replacing starter John David Booty, completed 26-of-41 passes, for 277 yards with a pair of TDs and a pair of INTs. On the season, USC's offense has been much more balanced, resulting in 189.6 yards rushing and 238.0 yards passing per game. Both QBs have had their ups and downs this year, with the two combining for just over 1,900 yards passing, 19 TDs and 13 INTs. Regardless of who is under center, the top targets downfield are WR Patrick Turner (39 receptions, for 438 yards and two TDs) and TE Fred Davis (35 receptions, for 549 yards and five TDs). The ground game is a mix of youth and experience. Veteran Chauncey Washington (66.9 ypg) and youngster Stafon Johnson (72.3 ppg) are a potent one-two punch on the ground.
The Trojans did what was necessary on defense last weekend, holding the usually explosive Ducks to their lowest production of the season. However, it wasn't enough in the seven-point setback. The defense has been there all season long, even when the offense has sputtered. The team is yielding just 17.5 ppg on the year, while allowing just 263.0 ypg (fourth nationally). The rush defense has been a constant, ranking seventh nationally at 78.9 ypg, while the pass defense (184.1 ypg, 17th nationally) has been impressive as well. It starts in the middle of the field, with LBs Keith Rivers (team-high 59 tackles) and Rey Maualuga (54 tackles, 6.5 TFLs, 3.0 sacks). The play up front is highlighted by All-American candidate Sedrick Ellis in the middle of the line (39 tackles, 9.0 TFLs, 6.5 sacks) and Lawrence Jackson (36 tackles, four sacks) and Kyle Moore (26 tackles 15 sacks, two interceptions, one fumble recovery) on the outside.
