After USC quarterback Caleb Williams and the Trojans beat Notre Dame, they learned they will get a revenge rematch with Utah in the Pac-12 title game.
In accounting for four touchdowns in USC’s 38-27 victory over Notre Dame, Caleb Williams made a convincing case that he should win the Heisman Trophy.Friday’s Pac-12 championship game will include a chance for revenge for the Trojans, who can avenge their Oct. 15 loss to Utah .
While Caleb Williams stole the show with four touchdowns, a Heisman pose and an imaginary crown ceremony, running back Austin Jones’ contributions helped define the game. Jones totaled just 65 rushing yards in the five games prior to Dye’s injury. He faded into the background, in part, because of inconsistent pass protection, but seeing him shine as the leading back has come as no surprise to the Trojans.
“Notre Dame traditionally is a physical, pounding type of team and Coach Riley was just like, ‘Hey man, we’re that team,’” Jones said. “We have to embrace that as well. We have to go out there and show everybody who we actually are. We’re not just a team that’s all about the flash, glitz and glamour, we really get in the trenches and really work.”
