LOS ANGELES — Southern California quarterback Miller Moss has been sacked five times and taken plenty more big hits in two Big Ten conference games. It's something the team would like to shore up at Minnesota on Saturday. Inexperience on the offensive line has been a main reason for much of the abuse Miller has been taking. Eleventh-ranked USC is starting redshirt freshman Elijah Paige at left tackle and rotating redshirt freshman Amos Talalele and sophomore Alani Noa at right guard.
