Caleb Williams passes for a career-high 411 yards and five touchdowns to help offset another worrisome defensive effort by USC in a 45-37 win over Arizona.
They trekked to the desert in search of renewal, ready to finally move forward and put the pain of their first heartbreak in the rearview.
USC wide receiver Tahj Washington celebrates with running back Austin Jones after scoring a touchdown against Arizona in the second half Saturday. USC ultimately wouldn’t need it, not with its offense moving the ball at will. With its receiving corps dominated by reserves and its offensive line shuffled, the Trojans still tallied 621 yards, their most since November 2019.Naps, yoga and chargers.

Arizona refused to fold. Even after two Trojans touchdown drives in the fourth quarter appeared to put the Wildcats away, quarterback Jayden de Laura continued to fight back, scrambling his way into big plays. He threw for 380 yards and three touchdowns, the last of which cut USC’s lead to just eight points with 1:26 remaining.
Still, Caleb Williams had little issue finding his rhythm with a fleet of reserves. By the end of the first quarter, USC’s quarterback had already completed 12 of 15 passes for 159 yards and involved seven different receivers. He hit freshman Raleek Brown for a six-yard touchdown on a swing pass in the first quarter and laced a bullet pass to Brenden Rice in the back of the end zone at the start of the second.
With time running down in the half, Caleb Williams found Rice for a 34-yard gain. Rice was brought down at the 10-yard line, with the clock stopped at six seconds. But before the ball could be spotted officially, seconds were already ticking away. By the time Caleb Williams hurriedly snapped the ball, the clock had already hit zero.
