SAN DIEGO -- This was not the 2019 finale the USC football team intended, and certainly not the reinforcing response coach Clay Helton wanted to deliver after the heavily-criticized decision by athletic director Mike Bohn to retain him heading into 2020.

USC fell behind two touchdowns in the first half, had a mounting rally upended by a scary injury to QB Kedon Slovis' throwing arm and then faded away down the stretch as Iowa finished off a 49-24 win in the Holiday Bowl.
