Last season with the Oklahoma Sooners, then-freshman quarterback Caleb Williams was asked to step into the starting role after Spencer Rattler was benched. Following the season both Williams and Rattler opted to play for other schools. Rattler left for South Carolina and Williams headed to USC.
This season will allow new head coach Lincoln Riley and Williams to finish what they started in Norman. There will be plenty of familiar faces and several new ones with Jordan Addison coming over from Pittsburgh, Brenden Rice from Colorado, and Travis Dye from Oregon.
As the season approaches, Trojans Wire breaks down the sophomore quarterback’s situational stats. All statistics courtesy of Stats Perform.
