The USC Trojans lost their third football game of the season to the Washington Huskies 52-42, but the main talking point of this Week 10 game involves Trojans quarterback Caleb Williams hopping into the stands and crying into his mother's arms following the loss.

Williams' actions have drawn differing viewpoints, of course, with the two headline opinions coming from ESPN analyst Robert Griffin III and former NFL star Robert Mathis.
Watching Caleb Williams sobbing with his family after losing the game will BREAK YOUR HEART. This young man pours his heart out for his team EVERY TIME he plays. Any NFL team would be lucky to have him as their QB and this emotion shows how much this game means to him. @CALEBcsw pic.twitter.com/BLBBE9IvG9

"Watching Caleb Williams sobbing with his family after losing the game will BREAK YOUR HEART," said Griffin, also known as RG3. "This young man pours his heart out for his team EVERY TIME he plays. Any NFL team would be lucky to have him as their QB and this emotion shows how much this game means to him."
While RG3 supported the top prospect for the 2024 NFL Draft, Mathis — formerly a defensive end and linebacker for the Indianapolis Colts — had an opposite opinion.
Sorry @RGIII (all love lil bro) but I gotta chalk this one up in the soft category. He ran and jumped in stance to his mommy and cried. I always tell players “I’ll never lie to em” and this is not the look you want from your trigger man. https://t.co/RSXleWdl0U
