No. 1 USC survived through one of its biggest scares of the season. Fresno State, which led 21-13 at halftime and rallied from a 13-point second-half deficit to take a late 42-41 lead, gave USC (11-0, 7-0 Pac-10) all it could handle. In the end, Reggie Bush ran for a career-high 294 yards on 23 carries and scored twice, leading the Trojans to a wild 50-42 victory over No. 16 Fresno State. Paul Pinegar was 27-of-45 for 317 yards and four touchdowns with four interceptions. Wendell Mathis gained 109 yards on 23 carries.
