In sports, the only certainty is uncertainty-and it's that unpredictability that keeps fans coming back year after year. For USC football in 2024, this unpredictability was both a strength and a weakness, as the season unfolded with near-misses and lingering questions about the program's future under head coach Lincoln Riley. USC, a storied football program, finished the regular season with a 6-6 record, marking a step backward from Riley's debut year and intensifying criticism of his tenure....

Trojan fans, there's no need to panic. There will be life after Caleb Williams.

Moss didn't have the success that he had in the bowl game, as he threw for 133 yards,...
