The USC Trojans looked poised to claim a rebound victory over Maryland following a heartbreaking loss to Penn State in Week 7.
Instead, the Mid-Atlantic region has victimized the Trojans for a second consecutive week.
USC was up 21-7 at halftime but collapsed in the second half to lose to the Terrapins. Maryland had entered the game 0-3 within the Big 10 and had just fallen in blowout fashion to Northwestern the prior week.
Miller Moss was solid statistically, going 34-of-50 for 336 yards with three touchdowns and one interception, but the offense failed to score on their final three drives and allowed Maryland to squeeze back into it.
