The USC Trojans are favored by 1.5 points against the Oregon Ducks. Given USC’s high offensive stats, with 91.9 points per game, they are likely to cover the spread. Oregon’s lower scoring at 73.7 points per game makes it challenging for them to keep pace. The projected score is USC 88, Oregon 80. Taking USC to cover the -1.5 spread seems reasonable.
The over/under line is set at 155.5 points. Considering USC’s high-scoring games and Oregon’s defense, the total is expected to exceed this line.
