2 Betting Keys to Consider for USC vs Washington
1. Offense is Heating Up for Trojans
USC’s offense woke up in a big way last week, throwing a 42-spot on Rutgers like the Trojans were trying to order a side of fries with it. Miller Moss has been quietly building momentum, tossing 16 touchdowns on the season, and seems to have found his groove with back-to-back 300-yard games. It’s not flashy, but hey, it gets the job done — kind of like wearing sweatpants to a wedding with a casual dress code.

Conversely, Washington’s offense stalls out more often than a teenager learning how to drive a stick. The Huskies rank a dismal 98th in third-down conversions and 110th in red-zone efficiency. Meanwhile, USC ranks 20th and 11th in those same categories, respectively. That means the Trojans know how to finish drives while Washington is still trying to figure out if it left the oven on.
2. Washington Defense is Softer Than Overcooked Pasta
While the Huskies have been decent at keeping teams out of the end zone, their run defense is like a colander — holes on holes. They rank 72nd in rushing defense, allowing nearly 150 yards per game.
Enter Woody Marks, USC’s Mississippi State transfer who’s been running through defenses like a fat kid playing Red Rover. Marks has already racked up 755 yards and eight touchdowns, making him a nightmare for a defense that can’t stop the run.

The Huskies may only allow 18.75 points per game, but when your run defense leaks like a sieve, that’s a ticking time bomb waiting to go off. USC’s offense should be able to exploit those gaps and grind down Washington’s defense, making the Trojans a solid NCAA football prediction to cover the 3-point spread.
Bet Bet for USC vs Washington
In this matchup, USC’s offense has the firepower to create separation, and Washington’s defense has the consistency of melted cheese.
