The USC Trojans will play the Stanford Cardinal in a PAC-12 game at Stanford Stadium on Saturday night.

The USC Trojans are 1-0 this season after defeating Rice by a score of 66-14 in their opening game. USC blew the doors off of Rice in this game, outgaining them 538-280. Caleb Williams threw for 249 yards and two touchdowns, while adding 68 rushing yards for the Trojans. Austin Jones rushed for 48 yards and two touchdowns, while Jordan Addison caught five passes for 54 yards and two touchdowns in the USC win. The USC defense allowed 280 yards and forced four turnovers in the game.

The Stanford Cardinal are 1-0 this season after beating Colgate by a score of 41-10 in Week 1. Stanford dominated Colgate in this game and racked up 497 total yards in the game. Tanner McKee threw for 308 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception for Stanford. E.J. Smith rushed for 118 yards and two touchdowns, while Michael Wilson caught five passes for 82 yards and two scores for the Cardinal. The Stanford defense allowed 218 yards and forced one turnover in the game.

USC is 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games and 0-5 ATS in their last 5 conference games. The over is 7-3 in USC’s last 10 games. Stanford is 8-21-1 ATS in their last 30 games and 0-6 ATS in their last 6 conference games. The over is 10-4 in Stanford’s last 14 games following an ATS loss. The under is 4-0 in these two teams last 4 head to head meetings at Stanford.

Both of these teams blew out their opening week opponent and coasted to easy victories. USC is loaded this year and should score plenty of points in all of their games. Stanford will give them a fight with their defense, but the Trojans will make big plays. I think Stanford will be able to score on the USC defense, which makes me lean towards the over in this matchup.
