USC quarterback Caleb Williams, fresh off his Heisman Trophy-winning season, is eager to help USC reach the College Football Playoff this year.
— due in part to him injuring his hamstring on a long run in the first half — was a jolting experience.
“Yep, 15 games,” Williams affirmed later. “You don’t play for a Pac-12 championship, you don’t play for a Heisman, you don’t play for a Biletnikoff, all those awards. You play for the end goal, and you want to prepare yourself mentally and physically for the long haul. So you prepare yourself for 15. Because we’ve got a real shot this year.”USC was picked by the media to win the conference in its last Pac-12 season.
Williams is considered to be a shoo-in as the No. 1 overall pick in the next NFL draft. The presumption is that some struggling NFL team is going to be lucky enough to draft a player with the ability to alter a franchise’s trajectory just like he has the USC program in a short time.
