LOS ANGELES (AP) — No. 16 Southern California cruised to a 38-13 victory over Washington State. Amon-Ra St. Brown caught four touchdown passes from Kedon Slovis in a spectacular first quarter. Slovis threw five touchdown passes in the first half before finishing with 287 yards. The unbeaten Trojans returned from a one-week absence caused by a COVID-19 outbreak with a dominant performance on both sides of the ball against the Cougars, who hadn’t played since Nov. 14. Freshman Jayden De Laura passed for 134 yards, threw two interceptions and lost a fumble for the Cougars.
