USC football earns high grades following shutout win against Fresno State

The USC Trojans registered a shutout against Fresno State, drawing strong marks from analysts for individual player performances despite concerns regarding the offensive line. Freshman receiver Trent Mosley led the team with an A-plus grade, showcasing elite playmaking ability in his second appearance. Quarterback Jayden Maiava completed 23 of 25 passes, demonstrating improved accuracy compared to the previous week. Defensively, Jide Abasiri and Kennedy Urlacher were instrumental in executing schemes designed by coach Gary Patterson, contributing to two safeties. While the defensive unit and receivers received high ratings, the offensive line struggled with run blocking, earning a C-minus. The team now turns its attention to upcoming challenges, including a scheduled game against Oregon later this month.
