This game is a defensive slugfest. USC matches up on the defensive end far better than Oregon did. It will force Stanford and Hogan to make plays in the passing game. On the flip side, USC's Silas Redd (Penn State traitor) is out. This will really hurt their ground attack and I don't see USC rolling up large numbers in the passing game with a very capable Stanford pass rush and a mediocre QB at the helm for USC. Points should be at a premium here, with far more FG attempts than touchdowns. Give me the under!
