No. 12 USC outlasts Arizona State 14-9

No. 12 USC outlasts Arizona State 14-9
ANDREW BAGNATO, Nov 8, 2009
USC is back in the defense business. Will Harris returned an interception 55 yards for a touchdown -- one of four turnovers forced by the Trojans -- and No. 12 USC held on for a shaky 14-9 victory over Arizona State on Saturday night.
