Dealing with concussion symptoms Mobley's absence from Saturday's 67-64 win over UCLA was attributed to the junior forward dealing with concussion-like symptoms, Adam Zagoria of ZagsBlog.com reports. Impact Prior reports had characterized Mobley's injury as a fractured nose, but clearing the concussion protocol may be the bigger concern for the big man at this juncture. While Mobley was sidelined for a second consecutive contest, the Trojans received a big game from Drew Peterson, who stepped up to provide 27 points (9-13 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), 12 rebounds, five blocks, four assists and one steal in 38 minutes. Peterson should continue to benefit from heightened usage on offense if Mobley remains out for USC's next game Thursday versus Washington.
