Walk-On Union Watch. Four non-scholarship players got PT against the Trojans.
- LS Kyle Petrucci, sr. Played in his second game of the season, not sure if it was for kicks or punts.
- DE Trey LaBounty, sr. Played in his second game of the season.
- ILB Jake Lynch, sr. Played in his second game of the season.
- ILB Jason Kaul, jr. Debuting at his new position.
- WR Brycen Tremayne, a senior former walk-on, started and had three catches for 49 yards and a TD. It is pretty amazing that a player goes from walk-on to in the conversation for player of the game against USC.
- OLB Thunder Justice Keck, a fifth-year former walk-on, did not play again. Injured?
- P Ryan Sanborn, a junior former walk-on, punted three times for a 46.7-yard average (good!), including one downed inside the opponent's 20-yard line, and one 59-yard missile. He also punted once into the endzone for a touchback.
- S Noah Williams, a fifth-year former walk-on, started and led the team with 9 tackles.
- ILB Spencer Jorgensen, a junior former walk-on, played and recorded a tackle.
