USC Quarterback Jayden Maiava Gets Real About Rough Start

USC senior quarterback Jayden Maiava opened up about navigating a sluggish opening half during the team's Week 5 contest against the Washington Huskies at United Airlines Field at Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. After struggling early with an uncharacteristic turnover and a slow offense, Maiava bounced back significantly after halftime by relying on fundamental execution, ultimately guiding the eighteenth-ranked Trojans to a 25-21 comeback triumph.

Despite missing multiple key pass-catchers due to injuries, Maiava found success connecting with targets like Tanook Hines and Zacharyus Williams, while running backs King Miller and Waymond Jordan helped ease the pressure with steady rushing production.
