USC football is a 4.5-point favorite against Washington State at home on Friday. Here are three bold predictions for the #Pac12AfterDark action in Los Angeles.
After a run of eight consecutive wins over the Cougars in the days of the Pac-10 between 2003 and 2010, USC has lost two of their past three contests against Washington State during the Pac-12 era. Mike Leach’s squads have taken down the Trojans both at home in Pullman and on the road in Los Angeles.
Will Washington State make it three out of four when they head to Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum to face the Trojans on Friday night? The showdown at the Coliseum is a game USC has to win just to get back to .500 in the standings, while Washington State is sitting on a perfect 3-0 record and hopes to open Pac-12 play with a major win.
The oddsmakers like USC to prevail at home, but the momentum rests squarely with Washington State heading into the contest. Will that matter in the end, or will USC prove the sharps right? Here are three bold predictions for how things are going to shake out on Friday when the Cougars hit the road to face Clay Helton‘s crew.
