Here are five things Longhorn fans need to know about No. 22 USC ahead of Saturday night's game at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium:
1. Goodbye Sam Darnold, hello JT Daniels
What's the biggest difference between this year's USC team compared to last year's? Easy. The Trojans' starting quarterback is no longer Sam Darnold, who is now in the NFL leading the New York Jets. And that just might make all the difference if the Longhorns are somehow able to pull off a victory on Saturday.
True freshman JT Daniels, the nation's No. 3 quarterback in the 2018 recruiting cycle, per 247Sports, will make just his third collegiate start this weekend.
