USC beats Colorado but loses Pac-12 title
The Trojans cruise to a 47-29 victory against the Buffaloes, but ASU defeats UCLA to dash the Trojans’ hopes of playing for a title berth.
Kessler’s Christianity brings calming sense
For USC redshirt sophomore quarterback Cody Kessler, the bright lights of Saturday night begin with Sunday mornings.
