Washington Stuns USC For 2nd Straight Year
LOS ANGELES (AP)—Jake Locker engineered a long drive to set up Erik Folk's 32-yard field goal as time expired, and Washington beat No. 18 Southern California 32-31 on Saturday night.
Locker passed for 310 yards and rushed for 111 more as the Huskies (2-2, 1-0 Pac-10) racked up 537 yards of offense in their second straight win over the Trojans (4-1, 1-1).

Locker converted a fourth-and-11 from the Washington 24 with 2 minutes left, and Chris Polk rumbled 26 yards to the USC 33 on the next play. Folk's kick set off a celebration of the Huskies' first win at the Coliseum since 1996.
