No. 9 USC showed some serious flaws in close road wins over Arizona State and Colorado the last two weeks. And when the Trojans returned home to face Arizona on Saturday night, those flaws nearly proved costly.
USC needed three overtimes to escape the Wildcats with a 43-41 win to remain undefeated ahead of next week’s trip to Notre Dame. It wasn’t pretty. In fact, it was downright ugly.
USC inexplicably threw the ball on first down and the pass fell incomplete. On second down, there was a botched exchange between Caleb Williams and Lloyd and the ball ended up on the turf. Williams fell on it for a two-yard loss. With the clock ticking, USC scrambled to the line and ultimately called timeout with four seconds to go. Out came the field goal unit, and disaster struck. The snap was high and the operation had no chance, sending the game to overtime still tied at 28-28.
That set up triple-overtime and its wacky, two-point conversions only format. USC converted its try with Williams tiptoeing down the sideline and into the end zone. USC finally sealed the win when its defensive line surged through the Arizona front and stopped DJ Williams in the backfield.Arizona was just the more focused team from the start. The Wildcats built a 17-0 lead by the early part of the second quarter, forcing Williams and the Trojans to play from behind.
Arizona added to the lead with a field goal early in the third before the Trojans took their first lead of the ballgame on a Lloyd touchdown run. That score made it 21-20, and then the Trojans scored again to make it 28-20 with 12:54 to play.
