Coming off the bye week, the USC Trojans will open up as a 6.5-point favorite over the Michigan Wolverines, according to BetOnline.ag.
The defending National Champion Wolverines are coming off of an uninspiring victory over Arkansas State 28-18. Starting quarterback Davis Warren threw 3 interceptions, and only threw for 122 yards. The Wolverines did, however, rush for 301 yards on the ground.
After being off for the week, USC held pat at Number 11 in the latest AP Top 25, while Michigan fell one spot to Number 18.
Currently, USC has the 16th overall-ranked offense, and the 55th overall-ranked defense (yards per game). Michigan has the 106th overall-ranked offense, and the 54th overall-ranked defense.
We will have plenty of coverage leading up to this historic matchup, as it will be the USC Trojans first Big Ten matchup as a member of the conference. Kickoff is set for this Saturday (September 21) at the Big House, at 12:30 PM PT on CBS.
