Utah vs USC

A couple of struggling teams will battle it out tonight in Pasadena, California, as the 2-2 Utah Utes will travel and play the 3-2 USC Trojans. USC has had a lot to deal with this season, most notably the departure of their head coach Clay Helton as he was fired after a rough start for USC. USC comes into this game as a three-point short home favorite tonight. I love this line here for the Trojans as I believe they are a much better team than they have displayed on the young season. Utah has had some issues at quarterback and turning over the football. I see a significant advantage here for USC on the offensive side of the football. Despite just a 3-2 record, the Trojans are led by a very talented QB in Kedon Slovis. Slovis has already thrown for over one thousand yards this season while throwing for seven touchdowns as well. I fully expect a dominant performance tonight for Slovis, who I believe is the best player on the field tonight. 

Pick: USC -3 -105
