USC Trojans bounce back to beat Oregon 44-10

[October 06, 2008]  LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Mark Sanchez threw for 332 yards and three touchdowns Saturday night and No. 9 Southern California stormed back from a stunning loss to rout No. 23 Oregon 44-10.

The Trojans (3-1, 1-1 Pac-10) shook off a defeat at Oregon State in Corvallis that knocked them out of the No. 1 ranking, and dominated the Ducks (4-2, 2-1), who had been considered the better of Oregon's two Pac-10 schools.

Sanchez, coming off a so-so performance in the 27-21 loss, completed 19-of-28 and did not throw an interception.

He threw to seven different receivers, with Joe McKnight catching five passes for 86 yards, and Patrick Turner grabbing five for 77 yards and a TD.
