Heading into their game against Washington, the USC Trojans were ranked #3 in the country. After the shocking loss to Washington, the AP was generous and only dropped them 9 spots to #12. Considering the Huskies didn’t win a single game last season, the Trojans are lucky they didn’t fall out of the top 25 entirely.

Meanwhile, Washington found themselves ranked #24 in the AP poll. Coach Steve Sarkisian knew that was only going to be a matter of time.

“We said early on that it wasn’t going to take us very long,” Sarkisian said. “I think maybe some people outside our own little domain thought that that was just press-conference-speak.”
