College football betting on Saturday night favors USC in their rivalry matchup with UCLA. It has not been a great season for the Trojans as they won’t be winning the Pac-10 this season or playing in a BCS bowl. NCAA football betting has USC a 13-point favorite in this game with a total of 47.5. College football betting has USC at 7-3 this season and 4-3 in the conference. The Trojans lost two weeks ago to Stanford in humiliating fashion 55-21. “I’m not sure I have the right words to describe being humbled like this,” head coach Pete Carroll said. “I don’t really know where to put it. … We have fallen apart and given our opponents the opportunity to do whatever they want.” The USC defense has not been very good this NCAA football betting season. They gave up 55 points to Stanford and earlier in the year gave up 47 points to Oregon. The offense hasn’t been that great either. Quarterback Matt Barkley is looking like a freshman. He went 21 of 31 for 196 yards against Stanford. He is averaging only 165 passing yards in his last three games.
UCLA is just 6-5 overall and 3-5 in the Pac-10. This college football betting game against USC is a big one for the Bruins who are trying to make an impact on bowl scouts. Only six Pac-10 teams are guaranteed a bowl berth and UCLA is 7th.
USC has won 9 of the last 10 against UCLA. It might be tough on Saturday in college football betting though considering UCLA’s defense has allowed more than 27 points only once this college football betting year.
