2. Kedon Slovis passes for 400 yards

Kedon Slovis has been a revelation for USC. Little did everyone know this former three-star recruit would take over for JT Daniels when he went down with an injury and potentially secure the starting job for the next few years.

The freshman quarterback has missed some time with an injury but when he’s healthy, he gives the Trojans the best chance to win. He has a rocket for an arm and he’s incredibly accurate with his completion rate hovering around 74 percent for the season.

With four starts under his belt, he knows what it takes to succeed at this level and he has one 300-yard game in his career but he’ll add another on Friday night.

Colorado has been horrible against the pass this season, allowing over 300 yards per game through the air which is one of the worst totals in the country. That will continue as Slovis not only records his second 300-yard game of the season but his first-ever 400-yard outing.

With the weapons Slovis has on offense, this should be more than doable.
