The star quarterback, who has shouldered much of the blame for last week’s Notre Dame loss, appears confident heading into Saturday’s Pac-12 clash with Utah
USC quarterback Caleb Williams warms up prior to their game against Arizona on Saturday night at the Coliseum. There was one final rush Saturday night that hit Caleb Williams, trudging off the field after a flatlining loss in which USC’s superman had finally faced his kryptonite.
Four days later, after practice Wednesday, any hint of emotion was gone. Digested. Funneled, suddenly, into a smirk and razor-sharp gaze, into Kobe Bryant quotes about self-doubt. No longer a man keeping a brave face and standing trial, but the judge lording over it. So they scrapped. Sometimes, Sweeney remembered, their offensive coordinator would summon both up to a whiteboard, giving them an impromptu head-to-head test: Draw this formation, this passing play, this blocking arrangement.
“People, human beings, are afraid to fail a lot of times … in football, do you really want the ball? Do you really want the ball in your hands in that crucial moment?” Trivers said. “Caleb, he really wants it, man. Like, you can look in the dude’s eyes, and you can see there’s nothing else he’d rather do, and no place he’d rather be, than in a pressure situation with the ball in his hands.”
