Avalanche Of Mistakes Bury Huskies At USC 40-10

The offensive line could not hold back the Trojans' zooming rush ends, leaving quarterback Keith Price with both knees battered and a towel over his head as a spectator for the final 1 ½ quarters of another dud on that side of the ball. The defense could not contain USC's big-play receivers and runners. The special teams allowed a 35-yard by the punter. All that plus penalties galore sent Washington to its first loss to USC since 2008, 40-17 on a gray-in-more-ways-than-one Saturday at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.
