USC Alumni React To Arizona Victory

See what USC alumni are saying about the Trojans' 34-30 victory over the Arizona Wildcats.

The USC vs. Arizona game seemed to be a reoccurrence of last weeks matchup against Arizona State. Once again the Trojans struggled to capitalize on 3rd and 4th down conversions, RedZone scoring chances, and a reduction of penalties. By the time the 4th quarter rolled around USC found themselves in a tight scoring game with just minutes to execute a few scoring drives. 

USC's offense was 'off' for a majority of the game. Slovis looked out of rhythm, and although he finished the night 30/43 and 325 passing yards (7.6 avg.), the Trojans just seemed out of sync. 

This was the Trojans first road game of the season, Clay Helton said in a post game presser that the weather conditions in Tucson were "windy" and "dry". Maybe these factors influenced the outcome of the game and Slovis' performance but nonetheless, USC lacked explosiveness and momentum for a majority of the game.

However, as Helton said in the post game presser, "a win is a win". The Trojans are now 2-0 and 1-0 on the road. This week they will prepare to play the Utah Utes for their second road game of the season.
