Oregon vs USC Pick
Both quarterbacks have played extremely efficient football, combining for 21 touchdown passes and only 1 interception. USC has the home-field advantage and enough offensive weapons to trade scores throughout the game, but its defense struggled to put away Rutgers. Oregon owns the stronger defensive unit and should have more success controlling the line of scrimmage. Moore has protected the football and consistently found different receivers, making it difficult for USC to focus on one option. Look for Oregon to make one or two additional defensive stops and cover the short road spread in a high-scoring matchup.
