The market is basically telling you USC is going to get off to a good start here, and we agree.

Oregon is a three-point favorite, yet USC to score first is being priced around a pick'em at -110.

USC does have some injury concerns, most notably wideout Trent Mosley, while Oregon will be without linebacker Brayden Platt defensively. Oregon is also dealing with several offensive injuries, including WR Jeremiah McClellan, while WR Jalen Lott is doubtful.

Despite the injuries, Jayden Maiava remains in place at quarterback, and we trust USC's offense to come out aggressively at home.

The market is pointing toward USC starting fast, and we agree.

Pick: USC to Score First -110
