On Saturday, the USC football earned its first Big Ten victory of the season, as the Trojans defeated Purdue 33-17. However, it was far from the only win of the weekend for USC fans. On Friday night, crosstown foe UCLA was dominated at home 35-10 by New Mexico. Then, on Saturday evening, archrival Notre Dame dropped a 41-40 heartbreaker in South Bend to Texas A&M.
For the second time in three weeks, it was a Perfect Weekend for USC, with the Trojans winning and both rivals losing. Interestingly, however, neither instance was a traditional “Perfect Day”, as both involved either a Friday or Sunday game.
