Sanchez left USC as one of the school's best quarterbacks. The All-Pac-10 signal-caller threw for 3,965 yards with 45 total touchdowns and 16 interceptions in a three-year span. The 34 TDs during his final year was second-most in Trojan history when he left early for the NFL. It was behind Matt Leinart's total of 38, who came right before Sanchez at Southern Cal.
