USC at UCLA

Not a lot has gone right for USC this season, but this is a huge rivalry game, which often brings the best out of the dog. The Trojans are just 11-18 on the season, but are off a confidence building 15 point win vs. Washington. The Trojans have also been a lot more competitive as a sizable dog where they are 5-2 ATS in their last seven when taking eight points or more. UCLA has split their last four games, and at 18-12, an NCAA Tournament bid can only be earned with a win in the PAC-12 Conference Tournament, and they enter here just 3-7 ATS in their last 10 of a spread loss. The Trojans have been a lot more competitive on the road lately, and may not be showing it in the win column, but they are 5-1 ATS in their last six on the road. Grab the points and play on USC.
