TCU Edges USC in Overtime Thriller in Week 1

TCU defeated USC 30-27 in overtime in Week 1, covering the 4.5-point spread in a high-scoring affair that exceeded the 56.5-point over/under. The Horned Frogs dominated the second quarter with 14 points and added 10 more in the fourth quarter to force overtime, where they outscored the Trojans 6-3 to secure the victory.

USC's offense was led by quarterback Jayden Maiava, who completed 280 passing yards. King Miller rushed for 99 yards, while Riley Wormley led receivers with 9 catches. The Trojans scored consistently across the first three quarters with 3, 10, and 8 points respectively.

The most pivotal play came in overtime when TCU's Jeremy Payne caught a 35-yard touchdown pass from Ken Seals, a play that generated an EPA of 5.73 — the game's most impactful moment. USC's defense recorded an interception by C. Canada in the third quarter, but TCU's defense ultimately made the critical plays when it mattered most, including multiple high-impact defensive stops that limited USC's scoring opportunities late in regulation.
