On October 6, Booty suffered a broken finger in his throwing hand during a 24–23 loss to Stanford. He sat out the following three games before returning as the starting quarterback against Oregon State on November 3.

On his return, the Trojans finished the season 5–0 and outscored opponents 165–68, culminating in a victory in the 2008 Rose Bowl, an unprecedented sixth straight Pac-10 title and making the Trojans the first college football team to achieve six straight 11-win seasons.
