Caleb Williams throws for five touchdown passes and the USC defense puts in a stronger performance in a 66-14 blowout victory over Nevada.
With Stanford and Cal moving to the ACC, university presidents continue to put the football money train ahead of what is in the best interest of students.Defensive lineman Stanley Ta’ufo’ou highlighted the lights-out defensive performance with a 23-yard fumble recovery for a touchdown with 12:05 remaining that put the Trojans up 52-7.
The comprehensive rout was a swift turnaround from the uninspired, inconsistent effort against San José State last week, but is still far from what the No. 6 Trojans will need to conquer the Pac-12 in their final year in the conference. After successfully avoiding any pitfalls against the Wolf Pack — a team that went 2-10 last season and lost their quarterbacks coach less than two weeks ago — USC begins conference play against Stanford next Saturday at the Coliseum.
Running back MarShawn Lloyd staked his claim to the starting role with a team-high seven carries for 76 yards and his first touchdown as a USC player. The South Carolina transfer may have edged returner Austin Jones for the leading role as Jones was limited to two carries for 19 yards.
