Steven Montez never recovered from that concussion. Kedon Slovis again finds Michael Pittman for a TD pass and it’s 35-31, Trojans. Kedon Slovis finds Michael Pittman for a 44-yard TD pass. Colorado 31, USC 28. End of third quarter: Colorado 31, USC 21. Graham Harrell‘s offense is pretty much a nothing burger for first three quarters.

If you asked me three players I think USC cannot afford to lose for a game, I might pick defensive end Drake Jackson, safety Talanoa Hufanga and tailback Markese Stepp. That might spell doom for USC in a normal situation but this is the Pac-12 we are talking about here.
