USC cited a long list of mistakes to correct after nearly losing to Arizona, but the Trojans took pride in fighting for a win in triple overtime.
After so much had gone so miserably awry, from the sleepy offense and sloppy defense to the errant throws and missed tackles, it felt almost too simple that it would end like this for USC. Just a 25-yard field goal to erase the disastrous results that came before it. A routine kick to end a Saturday night that was anything but routine. Of course, it wouldn’t be that easy. Nothing had been for the Trojans Saturday.
He ran for one touchdown, his third of the night, then set up another with a second-and-19 conversion. As he stood at the 2-yard line, at the start of the third overtime, Riley put the ball in Williams’ hands to secure the win. USC’s entire offensive line shifted to the left to confuse Arizona’s defense, leaving the quarterback with just a few receivers around him.
