WEEK 13 College Football schedule is a bit of a down week, but Saturday’s lineup is headlined by USC Trojans vs. Oregon Ducks in Eugene – Home of ESPN’s College Geday. It’s an important rivalry in the Big Ten and could be the de facto elimination game in the college football picture.
Let’s get into my USC vs. Oregon.
USC vs. Oregon Odds
– Money Line: USC +310 / OREGON -390
– Point Spread: USC +10 (-108) / Oregon -10 (-112)
– Over / under: over 59.5 (-105) / Under 59.5 (-115)
USC vs. Oregon’s best bet #1: USC +10 (-108)
The Trojans have lost twice on the road this year, but visiting Oregon is nothing new for them in this Big Ten sense among former Pac-12 foes. Head coach Lincoln Riley’s team also had top-25 wins over Michigan (31-13) and Iowa (26-21 this past Saturday). This will probably be a high-scoring story – one where we should be able to continue. The wide receiver of Makai Lemomon and JA’Kobi Lane are among the best Duos in the world. Lemon has made 71 receptions for 1,090 yards and eight touchdowns so far this season. Lane had 40 catches for 585 yards and four TDs. USC rushed for 1,908 yards and 26 touchdowns at 5.6 yards per attempt in 2025. The Ducks defense is terrible against the run, so this could be a good game for the Trojans offense.
The ducks fought their competition hard. Head Coach Dan Lanning’s squad faced more opponents than the Top 25 at the time. Oregon needed to overcome a Penn State Team that turned badly, fell to Indiana 30-20 at home, and just beat Iowa 18-16. Youth, inexperience, and injuries have been Oregon’s hallmarks. Freshman WR Dakorien Moore (28 Repeetions, 443 yards, total TDS) missed the last two games with a knee problem. Assistant Gary Bryant Jr. missed last week’s game against Minnesota. Defensively, linebacker Devon Jackson was isolated from the previous two outings. The values of all three boys were unclear Saturday.
USC VS. OREGON Player Player Player Player: King Miller over 72.5 rushing yards (-114)
USC’s defense isn’t very good. The visitors’ best defense against Oregon’s high-powered offense may be their offense — especially that side of the ball’s ability to keep drives and keep the clock running in an effort to keep the offense going. In other words, the Trojans should focus on football performance. It’s a way to go about breaking down Oregon’s defense, though. After all, the Ducks lead the nation in passing defense (127.3 yards allowed per game) and yards per game allowed (5.1).
Miller has the entire USC backfield on him these days. RB ELI Sanders is out for the year and WayMond Jordan is not ready to return from an ankle injury. That means Miller will get a ton of Tarries, putting him in good shape to continue his current hot streak. Freshman from Calabasas, Calif. He has rushed for at least 83 yards in three straight games and has gained at least 127 yards in three of his last five games. During the full season, Miller caught 99 passes for 719 yards (ypc average) and five touchdowns.
