Right now, the Utah-USC rivalry is all Utes.

Utah took down the Trojans in the Pac-12 title game last season, but they weren't done doing business with them just yet.

The 14th-seeded Utes won, 34-32, on a field goal as time expired, earning their fourth-straight win over No. 18 USC, this one being on the road.

After a 61-yard punt return, Caleb Williams ran it in for an 11-yard touchdown to give the Trojans a 32-31 lead with 1:46 to go. The two-point conversion failed, so Utah only needed a field goal to win.

The Utes got across midfield with roughly a minute to go and converted a 4th and 1 from the USC 41 with under 20 ticks left. A false start pushed them back to the 45 with 16 seconds left, but Bryson Barnes rushed for 26 yards. Utah kneeled their next snap in the center of the hashes, and Cole Becker drilled the 38-yarder as time expired to give Utah the victory.

The Trojans entered the fourth quarter down 11 points, but early in the final quarter, Calen Bullock took an interception to the house, making it a 28-23 game. Both teams then exchanged field goals before the long Trojan punt return leading to Williams' score. But USC also missed a two-point conversion after that pick-six, so both of those came back to bite them.
