 BERKELEY, Calif. (AP) - The site of Southern California's last failure became just another stop on the Trojans' victory tour. Matt Leinart passed for 246 yards and ran for two touchdowns, and LenDale White ran for three more scores in No. 1 USC's 32nd straight win, a 35-10 rout of slumping California on Saturday.
Reggie Bush ran for 82 yards for the Trojans (10-0, 7-0 Pac-10), who endured none of the troubles and scares caused by the Golden Bears in the previous two seasons. With every businesslike drive and aggressive defensive stop, USC coolly buried its most competitive conference rival in recent years.
The USC defense intercepted Joe Ayoob four times and kept Cal out of the end zone until 1:34 remained, while Leinart was nearly flawless in his latest impressive argument for another Heisman Trophy — though he failed to throw a touchdown pass for just the fourth time in 36 career starts.
