Lincoln Riley probably could not have scripted a better start to the 2024 college football season.

The Trojans opened the season with a 27-20 victory in a top-25 matchup against LSU in Las Vegas and followed it up with a 48-0 win over Utah State in Week 2. Now, USC is going into its bye week, sitting at 2-0 and with momentum ahead of the opening of Big Ten conference play.

Through two weeks, quarterback Miller Moss is 48-for-66, passing for 607 yards and two touchdowns, filling in remarkably for 2022 Heisman Trophy winner and 2024 NFL draft No. 1 overall pick Caleb Williams. Running back Woody Marks ― who scored the game-winning touchdown against LSU ― leads the team with 29 rushes for 171 yards and five touchdowns, while tight end Lake McRee leads the team in receiving with nine receptions for 137 yards.

USC returns to action in Week 4 when it plays its first-ever Big Ten game against No. 10 Michigan in the Big House. Here’s what you need to know about the Trojans’ remaining schedule:

No, the USC Trojans do not play this week, as the team observes the first of its two bye weeks during the 2024 college football season.
