USC Benches Moss for Maiava at Quarterback
News summary

USC has decided to bench starting quarterback Miller Moss in favor of UNLV transfer Jayden Maiava, following a series of disappointing performances. The Trojans have lost four of their last five games, dropping to a 4-5 record, which has jeopardized their bowl eligibility. Moss, despite putting up 2,555 passing yards and 18 touchdowns this season, has struggled with interceptions, including three in a recent loss to Washington. Maiava, known for his mobility and dual-threat capability, has shown promise in limited action this season and had a standout freshman year at UNLV. USC hopes Maiava's playmaking ability will provide the spark needed to revive their season as they face Nebraska and other tough opponents in their remaining games. Coach Lincoln Riley has emphasized finding the best lineup to secure wins as the Trojans aim to finish the season on a high note.
