Top-ranked Oregon is laying almost a touchdown on Saturday at USC and gamblers are looking to take the Ducks as they bet on college football at SBG. The Ducks have been unstoppable on offense this season and should have a big day against USC’s defense. The Trojans have a good offense of their own which is why the total on this game in college football betting is listed at 70.
Oregon has been ranked at #1 in the AP poll for the past two weeks. TV commentators have been saying that the number one team in the country has been losing every week but that is not the case. Oregon is ranked first in the AP poll but they are number two in the BCS standings behind Auburn. If the Ducks go unbeaten the rest of the way they would definitely play in the BCS title game. They have to get past USC this week on the road in game that can be seen on ABC.
