How to play the total when the Trojans take on the Utes.
Not only did the Trojans lose by four touchdowns, but Williams threw a trio of interceptions and the offense scored just 20 points – its lowest output of the season.
Yes, there were different players on the field, but for what it’s worth, both of those games also went over 56 points.The Utes have the best defense USC has played this season, but the Trojans’ offense simply has too much firepower to be shut down in back-to-back weeks. The Trojans also have a pair of receivers – Tahj Washington and Brenden Rice – each averaging more than 19 yards per reception, and two more – Mario Williams and Zachariah Branch – averaging more than 10 yards per catch.Give Notre Dame credit for holding the Trojans to 20 points, but I’m willing to bet that won’t happen again.USC’s defense is giving up an average of 30 points per game this season and has surrendered more than 40 points in three straight weeks.
Perhaps the Utes figured something out during their bye and will be able to carry over the momentum they generated last week against Cal .The junior didn’t put up elite numbers against Cal , but the continuity of having one quarterback seemed to help the offense as a whole.College Football National Championship winner odds
