LOS ANGELES -- Although Southern Californias 1/3 start under coach Clay Helton is undeniably dismaying, Trojans fans couldnt find their September stumble through a brutal schedule to be completely surprising.With unbeaten Arizona State visiting the Coliseum on Saturday, its time to find out whether Helton is really in trouble.USC has failed to exceed realistic expectations so far this season, losing away from home to No. 1 Alabama, No. 7 Stanford and No. 18 Utah in the schools worst start since 2001. Helton changed starting quarterbacks after just three games, but the switch from Max Browne to Sam Darnold didnt fix much.If the Trojans, already 0-2 in Pac-12 play, cant derail Arizona States promising start, mere postseason eligibility could be a problem for a program that expects to contend for national championships, not minor bowl games.Thats likely to endanger the job of Helton, who is already in a tricky situation with new athletic director Lynn Swann. Helton, the well-liked veteran assistant, was promoted last year to the top job -- and given a lavish multiyear contract -- by AD Pat Haden, who subsequently left.You know the expectations going into this job, Helton said. If you dont welcome that, youre at the wrong place. I welcome it.Those expectations demand that Heltons Trojans awake from their slow start to contend with the high-powered Sun Devils (4-0, 1-0), who would be off to their best start since 2007 with another victory.Coach Todd Grahams quick-strike offense is averaging nearly 49 points per game for new offensive coordinator Manny Wilkins, with 16 rushing touchdowns already this season.Here are some things to know about the Sun Devils visit to the Coliseum:JAEL MARY: The last time Arizona State visited the Coliseum two years ago, the Sun Devils stunned the Trojans with a 38-34 victory on Jaelen Strongs 46-yard Hail Mary TD catch from Mike Bercovici as time expired. Arizona State scored three touchdowns in the final 3:53 to beat Steve Sarkisians Trojans, with Bercovici passing for 510 yards and five scores. The victory was the Sun Devils first at the venerable Coliseum since 1999. I would be a liar if I didnt tell you that was a great memory of mine, Graham said. That will always be special moment to me, and I would love to go create another one.DARNOLD DEBUTS: Darnold makes his first start at the Coliseum after getting promoted last week. Helton yanked the job from junior Max Browne after only three starts, and Darnold went 18 of 26 for 253 yards and no touchdowns in USCs loss at Utah. Darnolds mobility and playmaking knack stood out to Helton, but the freshman could use another strong performance to cement his new role. I think we have the guys, Darnold said. We have the weapons. We just need to execute and not turn the ball over.DEFENSE DIP: While Arizona States offense is humming, the defense has been discordant. The Sun Devils yielded 55 points to Texas Tech, 41 to California and 28 to Texas-San Antonio. They rank in the bottom half of the Pac-12 in most statistical categories, and Graham is hoping for improvement against the Trojans talent-stacked offense. I think that we are probably trying to do too much early in the season for where were at, Graham said. Were trying to find where that happy medium is, because you cant be just completely simple. You have to be able to execute what youre trying to execute. I think were figuring out what we can do.ADOREES TURN: Helton expects speedy defensive back Adoree Jackson to get more playing time on offense against the Sun Devils. The two-way star hasnt caught a pass this season, and he carried the ball for the first time last week.---AP college football website: www.collegefootball.ap.orgAuthentic NHL Jerseys . PAUL, Minn.

Team SoloMid has announced that AD Carry star player Yiliang Doublelift Peng has decided to take a hiatus from playing at a competitive level. The news comes on the heels of the end of the 2016 League of Legends World Championship tournament where TSM failed to make it out of group stages with a 3-3 record.TSM will hold tryouts to replace Doublelift, and as such, have dropped out of IEM Oakland.Thats why its time for a small break. After our convincing performance in Summer, NALCS Spring is considerably less appetizing, said Doublelift in the announcement. Streaming and creating content is something Ive always wanted to focus on, and its the perfect time to do it. Ill come back if the team needs me - better than before, and better than ever.Team owner Andy Reginald Dinh weighed in, saying that while unfortunate thhat the ADC is taking time to himself, hes happy for him taking steps to balance out his schedule.ddddddddddddIn this last year, Ive really gotten to know Peter. He has been a great player, a great employee, and a great friend, said Reginald. When TSM was struggling and at our lowest, he pushed himself to step up and together with Soren, they lead the team and brought us from a 6th place team in spring to the finals. Hes an extremely diligent person and Im sure hell find success in whatever he chooses to do.While focussing on on streaming and content creation, Doublelift states that he will remain on the team. If and when he chooses to return he will have to compete for a starting job. ' ' '
