SAN DIEGO — With Caleb Williams watching from the sideline, Miller Moss threw a DirecTV Holiday Bowl-record six touchdown passes in his first college start and USC ended a frustrating season by beating No.
16 Louisville 42-28 Wednesday night. Moss took full advantage of the opportunity he was given when Williams opted out. Williams, the 2022 Heisman Trophy winner and presumptive first overall pick in the NFL draft, watched from the sideline wearing a white T-shirt with his No.
13 jersey hanging around his neck. Moss was 23 of 33 for 372 yards, with one interception. He broke the Holiday Bowl record of four touchdown passes held by four players, including Jim McMahon in BYU's miracle 46-45 comeback win against SMU in 1980.
The record came late in the third quarter when Moss lobbed a 12-yard pass to a leaping Ja'Kobi Lane in the back of the end zone.
