LOS ANGELES (AP) - Matt Barkley had no idea Southern California had planned something special for his record-breaking 100th touchdown pass. After connecting with Robert Woods for the school-record TD during the No. 10 Trojans' blowout of Colorado, Barkley watched the massive Coliseum scoreboard with an even bigger smile as Matt Leinart, Carson Palmer, Pete Carroll, Blake Griffin, Landon Donovan and more Los Angeles sports luminaries offered taped congratulations. Barkley came back for his senior season with the Trojans to make history, and he got another piece of it during a win that moved USC (6-1, 4-1 Pac-12) back into the top 10. But Barkley is confident the Trojans are heading toward bigger history in January. To play in the national championship game or the Rose Bowl, the Trojans will need a big finish.
