In a storybook twist fit for the holiday season, redshirt sophomore quarterback Miller Moss stepped out of the shadows and into the spotlight, throwing a Holiday Bowl-record six touchdown passes to lead USC to a thrilling 42-28 victory over No. 15 Louisville.
With star quarterback Caleb Williams watching from the sidelines, Moss seized the opportunity like a hungry lion pouncing on prey. His arm, once relegated to practice reps, unleashed a symphony of spirals that found their way into the outstretched hands of USC receivers with pinpoint accuracy. Each touchdown was a brushstroke on the canvas of the game, painting a masterpiece of offensive dominance.

The Trojans, whose season had sputtered out after high-flying aspirations, were reborn under Moss's leadership. He connected with Tahj Washington for a pair of dazzling scores, one a laser beam over the middle and the other a perfectly placed deep ball down the sideline. Tight end Kade Eldridge hauled in two touchdowns himself, proving to be an unstoppable force in the red zone. Even Duce Robinson got in on the action, capping off the scoring with a 44-yard strike that sent the USC faithful into a frenzy.

So raise a glass, not just to the eggnog-drenched head coach Lincoln Riley, but to Miller Moss, the unlikely hero who brought holiday cheer to Los Angeles with a record-breaking performance that will forever be remembered as one of the most magical nights in USC football history.
