“You have to worry about Stanford with an emotional letdown, coming off that big victory (26-20 over Oregon last Thursday),” William Hill bookmaker Nick Bogdanovich told Sporting News. “S.C. is playing much better ball now under (coach Ed Orgeron); Marqise Lee looks healthy. The public will probably still be on Stanford, but, according to all the experts out there 3 or 3 ½ is right there.”

Stanford has won four of the last five in this series.  The last three games have been won by 2 to 7 points, one of those games went into overtime.

The Linesmakers experts over at Sportingbet like the OVER 47 in this game.

“We're sensing an opportunity with the total, which sat at about 46 as of Thursday evening. Stanford has no problem playing a grind-it-out style, and USC figures to have trouble moving the ball against the Cardinal defense. Seven of these teams' last eight games combined have stayed UNDER, and our money is on that trend to continue on Saturday.”
