On this latest edition of Tunnel Vision USCFootball.com's, Ryan Abraham and RJ Abeytia are back in studio talking about USC's 25-21 win over Washington on a hot Saturday evening in the Coliseum. Heading into the game the Trojans were relying on a prolific offense that could overcome the team's defensive shortcomings. Against the Huskies it was the defense that stepped up to overcome mistakes on the offensive side of the ball, including a spectacular thick-six when a hobbled Jahkeem Stewart picked up a fumble and rumbled 48-yards for the go-ahead touchdown.

Ryan and RJ breakdown the good, the bad and the ugly (and there was plenty of ugly on both sides) and talk about how that even though it wasn't pretty, it was an uber-important result for head coach Lincoln Riley and this Trojans squad. Following the loss to Oregon, the local and national media constantly discussed the job security of Riley and the importance of making the College Football Playoffs this year. A loss to a struggling UW when SC came in as a 9.5-point favorite would have likely been the final nail in Riley's coffin, at least as far as fans were concerned. With the victory, USC keeps its playoff hopes alive heading into back-to-back road games against Penn State and Wisconsin (sandwiched around a bye week).

The guys also talk about Gary Patterson's move to the coaches' booth for the game, the improved communication on that side of the ball,  USC punting as any times in this game as it did through the first five games of the season and plenty more.
