USC suffered a heartbreaking 34-32 loss to #14 Utah Utes (6-1 SU) in their second game in as many weeks. Key plays, including a costly fumble and an opposing field goal as time expired, kept USC from victory. Quarterback Caleb Williams was held without a passing TD and running back MarShawn Lloyd created a fumble, while the defense allowed the Utes to drive to their 20-yard line in the fourth quarter. Despite the loss, USC ranks first in average points scored per game with 45.4. However, the team's defense ranks 111th, allowing an average of 34.8 points per game to their opponents. Head coach Lincoln Riley commented that it "was a good heavyweight battle," asserting that "it comes down to little things here and there [but] we haven't played clean enough in the last couple of weeks." USC ranks 27 with a 6-2 (2-6 ATS) record, scoring an average of 47.29 points per game and allowing an average of 30.00 to be scored against them. There are a few key injuries, with DL Korey Foreman and WR Ralkeek Brown out with long-term injuries, but the team is otherwise relatively healthy. . @CALEBcsw takes it in himself 😤✌️ 📺: @CFBonFOX pic.twitter.com/F73oN7c7Ik
