No USC tailback ran more impressively than Allen Bradford in USC’s 27-6 victory over Washington State.

The junior from Colton gained a team-best 55 yards in six punishing carries during a second-quarter drive that ended with a missed field-goal attempt. “I just knew, once my series came up, once my number was called, I was just going to run hard and be physical and let my teammates feel me and let the coaches feel me,†Bradford said.
