 USC -13 defense steps up after playing tough against Cal, Barkley finally finds his grove and torches Utah for some long gainers.

I might agree with you but I'm taking Utah Utes +13.

Trojans 24 Utah Utes 21

byu was limited to the run with a qb playing with a bad back. Barkley is 100% and much more precise on throeing the ball.Utah scores 7 pts last week, how do you figure on taking Utah when multiple weapons exsist for USC?

Didn't Utah lose to Utah St.? 
The win over BYU throws doubt, but I sense a USC route.

Hard not to like the Trojans here but I don't like laying this much chalk on the road !  

The only "grove" Barkley is in may be down in Mississippi. Waiting for it to go over 14.  GLTA 

 I respect your view, but every minute that passes is a chance to turn a season around. In this spot I would not bet against Barkley and the Trojans.

USC about 7 points better than Utah.  Pick Utah +13.5

Im Gonna Wait  till Gametime when the line moves around a litttle But Ill Take The Under for sure

 

we all know Utah has a good defense.. but so does USC.. I don't see how Utah can score much in this one.. at least USC has some balance with Woods, Lee, Redd, and Barkley.. i don't trush Utah's QB to win this game with his arm, and USC should shut down Utah's run attack..

 

gotta go with the trojans

Where was Utah's defense against ASU and Utah St? gotta go with USC

Looks even worse for the Utah offense: Utah plans to start freshman RT Jeremiah Poutasi and freshman RG Siaosi Aiono against USC on Thursday.

USC should score to cover late.  USC -13

USC is gonna win big... Utah's offense (qb) will not do well against Trojan defense USC- 13.5

I agree with all of you that USC is more dominant team. However, USC defense sucks and always let's junk teams score against them. No play for me. I just don't trust USC enough until they start blowing away teams like they did last year!

this is going to be one-sided to much usc offense. no way utes keep pace with usc. 44-20  

Over

Take the fav

i've seen both play a few times this season.

I'm not sold on how the Utes play especially trying to match up the talent level of USC. Yes it's a Thursday game, but that was also the case vs in state rival UState and they didn't show up at all. Utes strength is their front 4 but USC is on another level when it comes to talent on their OLine to counter that.

USC brings the pain. Utah too inconsistent. Not fairing well in pac10 either after beating up on lessers for years. Hey Boise thats you next!!!!USC for the large, Under small

no one talks about the thursday night home dawg on these threads anymore?

OVER!

The dominant USC last year barely beat Utah's squad last year...... can someone enlighten me as if utah's squad last year was better than this years? 

They seem to play it close.... and usc's ATS this year isn't.... all that great. I think they used all their juice on cal and will come out flat here again.

early learn utah

recent history doesnt show me a blowout.so on that note ill take utah+16.5-133@heritage.
