Sam Darnold leads USC to 26-13 upset of No. 4 Washington

SEATTLE -- Adoree' Jackson sprinted into the purple end zone, planted his feet and flipped backward , perfectly sticking the landing. Southern California celebrated its biggest victory of the season with style and flash Saturday night. Sam Darnold threw for 287 yards and two touchdowns and USC upset No. 4 Washington 26-13 on Saturday night, snapping the Huskies' 12-game winning streak and damaging their College Football Playoff hopes. Darnold was outstanding against one of the top defenses in the Pac-12, showing why USC has surged since he became the starter. Darnold's lofted pass over linebacker D.J. Beavers and into the arms of tight end Daniel Imatorbhebhe for an 8-yard touchdown strike in the opening moments of the fourth quarter gave USC an 11-point lead that Washington (9-1, 6-1 Pac-12, No. 4 CFP) couldn't overcome.
