USC Trojans head coach Lincoln Riley will remain with the program following a major upset victory over Ohio State, according to reports. The decision comes after Riley led the Trojans to a notable win, reinforcing his commitment to the Los Angeles-based team.

On October 11, 2025, Riley was seen celebrating on the sidelines at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum after kicker Ryon Sayeri connected on a 54-yard field goal in the second half of a game against the Michigan Wolverines. Defensive end coach Shaun Nua joined in the celebration as the Trojans secured the win.
