USC fans chanted 'Fire Lincoln' during the Trojans' match against Washington.

USC fans chanted 'Fire Lincoln' at the Coliseum during the Trojans' Week 5 match against Washington. The chants began in the student section during the third quarter after a disappointing three-and-out drive and again after two USC defenders failed to push a Washington receiver out of bounds on a touchdown play.

USC won the match 25-21, but Fox News reports that absurd penalties and poor tackling contributed to fan frustration. The chants reflect growing criticism of head coach Lincoln Riley's performance with the team.
