Result:
LOSS

This could be a big challenge for USC, as the Utah defense has been forcing turnovers on a regular basis, and the Utes have picked off 13 passes this season to lead the FBS. That stat becomes problematic for the usually reliable Trojan QB Cody Kessler. Kessler had never been picked off twice in two games in a row, until his last two games, so this is certainly a suspect spot for Kessler and the USC attack. The Utes are 6-0 because they have a strong and opportunistic defense that has forced 19 total turnovers in six games, with no fewer than two in any game. USC opened the season scoring 48.3 points per game in their first three, with no turnovers, but have seen that average drop by 20 points in the last three as they have committed seven. Nothing is a drive killer like a turnover. The Utes have been 6-1 to the UNDER in their last seven on grass, and 11-5 to the UNDER in their last 16 overall. USC comes in at 35-17-1 to the UNDER in their last 53 off a spread loss. Take the UNDER in this one.
