2004 USC Football: vs CSU Recap (20th Anniversary)

LenDale White got together with some old friends Saturday night. He had a much better time than they did. White gained 123 yards on 14 carries and scored a career-high three touchdowns as No. 1 Southern California overpowered Colorado State 49-0, handing the Rams their most lopsided loss in eight years. The win was USC's 22nd in 23 games and 11th straight - the second-longest active winning streak among Division I-A schools behind Boise State's 13. It was also the Trojans' 16th consecutive triumph at the Coliseum dating back nearly three years - their longest winning streak at home since they won 19 straight from 1931-33. Unlike their opener, when they had to rally for a 24-13 victory over Virginia Tech, the Trojans (2-0) played like an elite team. "This is what we hoped to do when we came home," USC coach Pete Carroll said. "This game was a great statement for us. We did a lot of things we wanted to do - rushed the ball real well. We thought Colorado State would be a tough opponent based on their first game."
