USC Alumni Upset Over Home Loss to Utah Utes

Trojan alumni react to the USC Trojans 42-26 loss at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.

The USC Trojans took their third loss of the 2021 season at home to the Utah Utes on October 9. Unable to find any answers on offense or defense, USC finished week six with another historic loss. 

Prior to tonight, USC had fallen just once in 10 Los Angeles meetings to Utah. The defeat came more than 100 years ago. Donte Williams' team now sits at 3-3 overall, with a slim to none chance of winning the Pac-12 south.

Many former USC Trojans were unhappy with Saturday's result, and vocalized their opinions and frustrations on Twitter.

I’m going to say 1 thing about SC. It’s not losing that I dislike because you just can’t win them all. But we are taking ass whoppings, at the Coliseum too smh. Pride in wearing the Cardinal and Gold comes first! We should be in every game we play, off competitive pride alone!!!
