For the third time in six years, USC football will end its season in San Diego when the Trojans play Iowa in the Holiday Bowl on Dec. 27.
USC makes a move to retain offensive coordinator Graham Harrell, offering him a new contract two days after it announced the decision to keep head coach Clay Helton.
USC has lost just twice to Iowa in nine meetings all-time, beating the Hawkeyes in each of their past six meetings. The teams last met at the Orange Bowl in 2003, a 38-17 USC win.“The game is a terrific matchup between teams that finished very strong down the stretch,” Helton said. “To have the opportunity to compete against a team coached by Kirk Ferentz, who is so respected in our profession, is an honor.
If the Trojans continue their late-season offensive renaissance, the Hawkeyes will be hard-pressed to keep up. It’ll likely fall to freshman quarterback Kedon Slovis to move the ball effectively against an Iowa pass defense that ranks 10th in the nation in yards allowed and yards per attempt.
