After a 17-point comeback, the USC Trojans defeated the Texas A&M Aggies 35-31 in the Las Vegas Bowl. USC wide receiver Ja'Kobi Lane was named MVP after a three-touchdown performance and over 100 yards receiving.

USC closed its season on Friday with a dramatic 35-31 win over Texas A&M in the Las Vegas Bowl. The Trojans trailed by as many as 17 points midway through the third quarter and took the lead back for good with eight seconds remaining when quarterback Jayden Maiava found Kyle Ford for a seven-yard touchdown.

USC played badly enough to fall into a 17-point second-half hole against Texas A&M. Then it played well enough to overcome it all.
