Caleb Williams was every USC fan on Saturday night.
After his team’s heartbreaking loss to Utah, the Heisman-winning quarterback went viral for his reaction while sitting on the team’s bench. Looking completely broken, Williams was being consoled by teammates and seemed utterly disgusted by what just transpired.
The No. 18 Trojans had lost their last two matchups against the No. 14 Utes but appeared to break the losing streak late in the fourth quarter when Williams ran for his lone touchdown of the night to take a one-point lead with just 1:46 remaining in the game.
USC failed the two-point conversion, though, and Utah marched down the field to score on a walk-off field goal to win 34–32. Williams finished the game with 256 passing yards and 27 rushing yards.
