An interception by Oregon’s Matthew Harper stopped a USC rally and sealed the deal, a 24-17 victory Saturday at Autzen Stadium in Eugene, Ore. USC was down 24-10 in the fourth quarter, quarterback Mark Sanchez hit David Ausberry on a 14-yard pass for a touchdown to close to within seven with 4:44 left.

USC’s defense held on the Ducks’ next possession, forcing them to punt. Sanchez led the Trojans to the Oregon 33 on their final drive before Harper’s interception. Sanchez, making his third consecutive start in place of injured starter John David Booty, completed 26 of 41 passes for 277 yards and two touchdowns. All in all Oregon played a good game.
