USC leads Colorado 34-14 at halftime in Boulder. The Deion Sanders hype train has officially been halted.

A week after CU was blasted by Oregon and knocked out of the AP Top 25, USC did more of the same to CU in the first half on Saturday. The Trojans scored touchdowns on five of their seven first-half possessions as quarterback Caleb Williams came out firing to begin the game.

Williams completed 16 of his 19 passes for 248 yards and four touchdowns. Williams needed only 30 minutes to extend his streak of games with at least three touchdown passes to seven. He had completions to seven different receivers, including different targets for all four of his touchdown passes. Tahj Washington led the group with 102 yards and a score on four catches.

The USC offense had a 27% explosive play rate in the first half.

Defensively, it wasn’t as clean a game from USC’s defense, but they did well to capitalize on Colorado’s mistakes.

A 16-play, 67-yard Colorado drive ended with nothing after CU missed a field goal from the USC 23. The next drive ended with an interception from quarterback Shedeur Sanders on the third play. CU found the endzone on its next drive, but the momentum immediately dissipated as Eric Gentry blocked a CU punt to end a three-and-out with an exclamation point.

Here are the highlights from the first half:
