USC football: Clay Helton shares message to players, fans after disappointing loss to Stanford

The USC Trojans suffered a massive upset at the hands of the Stanford Cardinal in Week 2. After the game, head coach Clay Helton shared his message for the team moving forward.

As 17-point favorites over the Cardinal coming into the game, the Trojans got pushed around at home in a 42-28 loss. Helton’s seat was already warm entering the season, and the temperature only rose after this loss to Stanford.

Now, Helton and his team have to pick up the pieces and get back on track with 10 games left in the season. In his postgame press conference, Helton shared his message for the USC players and fans, via USCFootball.com.

“It’s early in the season,” Helton said. “We lost our first conference game. I look forward to seeing the production of our team through an entire season, and look forward to seeing where we add up at the entirety of the season. Obviously, this is a step back from last week’s performance, but something that I know our kids will react from. And I hope our fans, and I know they will, they’ll support our players.
