In a thrilling yet disheartening clash for USC, the Trojans faced another painful defeat against Maryland, extending their losing streak to three games. USC led 28-14 in the second half, only to succumb to a series of late-game blunders that let the Terrapins clinch a 29-28 victory. Miller Moss’s interception and the defense's fourth-quarter lapses contributed to USC's downfall. A blocked field goal by Maryland and a decisive penalty on John Humphrey led to Billy Edwards Jr.'s game-winning touchdown. Despite the setback, USC remains determined to fight through adversity as they prepare to host Rutgers, while Maryland looks ahead with newfound confidence as they aim for bowl eligibility.
