'Easy to get confused': USC claps back after B1G said fake punt should've been penalized

USC pulled off the fake punt by having reserve quarterback Sam Huard wear the same jersey number (No. 80) as primary punter Sam Johnson. Huard was listed as No. 7 in the game notes for the Northwestern matchup. Facing a fourth-and-6 early in the second quarter against the Wildcats, Huard came into the game wearing No. 80 and completed a pass to give the Trojans a first down. They wound up scoring on the drive to take a 14-7 lead.
