California vs. USC Live updates Score, results, highlights, for Saturday's NCAAF game

Game Recap

The USC Trojans were the 41-17 winners over the California Golden Bears when they previously met in November of 2019. On Saturday? They had no such luck. USC took a 24-14 hit to the loss column. That's the fewest points they have scored all year.

California's RB Christopher Brown Jr. filled up the stat sheet, punching in two rushing touchdowns. That's the most rushing touchdowns Brown Jr. has had all year.

No one had a standout game offensively for the Trojans, but they got scores from WR K.D. Nixon, WR Kyle Ford, and QB Jaxson Dart.

USC has fallen quite a ways from their 5-1 record from last season and are now 4-8. California's victory ended a three-game game drought at home and bumped them up to 5-7. With that, the South Division playoffs come to an end.
