    So USC is -2.5 on the road against #10 Arizona

    Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!?

    3-2 unranked team on the road against the 10th ranked 5-0 Cats team and they're favored?

    I can understand the let down angle but to put them as a dog at home? Zona D worked over a highpowered Oregon team, do we expect USC to score more than about 21 points in this game? No way they'll be held in the teens themselves.

    Yeah not sure what to expect here, AZ can run ball and after what BC did on ground to USC. That was after a big USC win so lets see how AZ does after the big road win

    Guy must be a hardass. Nothing like crying to mommy about someone picking fun.

    I give him 2-3 hours before he posts with a few "sam houston state " comments.

    Cats not that good, Oregon crapped the bed against them and they needed the biggest comeback in the history of college ball to beat a very crappy Cal team at home. USC will win this and should cover.

    Other than Stanford win, USC has been unimpressive. That was more a case of Stanford shooting self in foot in redzone

    Arizona is not that good. They struggled closing out Nevada and UTSA, and won on a miracle comeback at home against Cal.

    It's worth noting that last year following their major upset win over Oregon, Arizona got their doors blown off by 37 pts. in their most important game of the year against bitter instate rival ASU.

    This is the same D that gave up 45 points & 573 yards to a visiting Cal team the week before. Just saying, let's not say that Zona's defense is suddenly elite because of Thursday's performance

    Must have been a typo on the handicappers form, a box for the coach read Carrol instead of Sarkisian.

    Zona fan here, and I'm with everybody else on the #10 ranking, was shocked to see that. After watching USC's horrendous pass defense Saturday, the only bet I would consider making for this Saturday is over the total, unless it's set stupidly high. I can see a lot of points scored, especially in 2nd half as Arizona has been a 2nd half team as they try to tire defenses out.

    This line makes no sense, when it makes no sense, fade yourself. Everyone couldnt believe Duke +3.5 at Miami, FL... Miami won by double digits, this game seems similar
