Premium Pick
1 unit on USC -7 (-110) (risk 1 to return 1.91)
Result:
LOSS

SC will be looking for payback from last year and they'll get it on Saturday. California got SC in triple OT last year to break their 11-game winning streak. The Trojans will all be fired up for this one. They haven't lost since and have had two weeks to prepare. Road underdogs off a win by 10 points or more over a conference rival against opponent off 2 consecutive road wins are just 14-37 over the last 10 seasons. The Bears have a great rushing defense but USC is 9-1 ATS (+7.9 Units) versus excellent rushing defenses (those allowing <=2.75 rushing yards/carry) and 14-1 ATS (+12.9 Units) versus rushing defenses allowing <=120 rushing yards/game over the last 3 seasons. One unit on USC -7.
