Featured Game: USC Trojans (-21, 58) vs. Purdue Boilermakers
Time: 3:30pm ET /12:30pm PT
Television: CBS/Paramount+
We’ve got a total that opened 58 and ticked up to 58.5 at most books according to Oddslogic, and it makes sense given what both offenses bring to the table. These programs have never met before, and this will be their first Big Ten clash. Both squads are 2-0, but neither has faced a serious test yet — both schedules have been soft to start.
USC laying three touchdowns is probably justified considering the talent gap, but Purdue quarterback Ryan Browne is more than capable of keeping drives alive. Yes, he did throw a pick against Southern Illinois, which isn’t a great look, but turnovers can actually help an over — one bad decision could flip into a short field or even a defensive touchdown.
On the other side, Jayden Maiava has been electric, sitting at a nation-leading 96.7 QBR. He’s been efficient and explosive, and with weapons like Waymond Jordan in the backfield and Dalen Cobb leading the receiving corps, USC should have no problem moving the ball. Purdue’s defense isn’t likely to hold up four quarters against that firepower.
Put it all together, a fast-paced USC offense, a Purdue QB who can make plays (and mistakes), and two teams stepping into real competition for the first time, and the over makes sense here in West Lafayette.
Pick: Over 58
