USC Spring Game 2022 Preview
The USC Trojans will debut a new coaching staff and a revamped roster when they take the field on Saturday to wrap their initial preparation for the upcoming season with the annual spring game at the Los Angeles Coliseum.
The Trojans made significant changes in the offseason to retool a program that experienced its worst season in three decades last year.
The initial major splash was made last November and shook the college football world on its axis when the Trojans landed former Oklahoma head coach Lincoln Riley. The 38-year-old comes to Los Angeles following a successful five-year stint with the Sooners where he led them to a 55-10 record and three College Football Playoff appearances.
Riley will be joined by his former five-star quarterback, sophomore Caleb Williams, who was one of a few high-profile transfers that made their way to Los Angeles. Williams, who played his freshman season at Oklahoma, threw for 21 touchdowns and only four interceptions, while also rushing for 442 yards and six scores.
Along with Williams, USC was able to land running backs Travis Dye and Austin Jones from Oregon and Stanford, respectively. Dye will immediately slot into the top of the depth chart for the Trojans following a season at Oregon in which he was second in the Pac-12 with 1,271 rushing yards and he found the endzone 18 times (16 rushing TDs, 2 receiving TDs).
First-year defensive coordinator Alex Grinch will have his hands full going into the season, as he tries to turn around a defense that finished 89th out of 130 FBS schools in total defense last season. The Trojans bolstered that defensive unit in the offseason with the additions of linebacker Shane Lee from Alabama and corners Mekhi Blackmon and Latrell McCutchin via the transfer portal. Altogether, USC acquired six defensive transfers from Power Five schools, which should help improve a squad that allowed over 400 yards per game last season.
Saturday’s spring game will be the first chance fans get to see the new-look Trojans and coach Riley is planning for the squad to put on a show in front of the nationally-televised audience.
“It’s not going to be a game of tag,” Riley said. “We’re going to play football, like we have every single day. It’ll be fun. We’re going to try and keep it pretty fast-paced. We’ll play a half of football.”
