Coming into this game, USC was favored to win after blowing out Stanford the week before. Kedon Slovis was preparing for his second start after an impeccable debut the week before - he threw for 377 yards and 3 touchdowns against Stanford.

BYU was coming of a thrilling comeback victory in double overtime against Tennessee. The Cougars, however, looked out of rhythm for most of the game against the Vols. It wasn't until Zach Wilson connected with Micah Simon in the last minute of regulation that BYU started to click on offense.

USC was 2-0, BYU entered the game 1-1, and USC marched down the field easily and scored on the first drive of the game. Everything changed when Payton Wilgar intercepted a Kedon Slovis pass.
