Washington is playing much better on defense and they are at home. They have been in a lot of close games that could have broken their way so their record doesn’t reflect how much better they are. They have played a tougher schedule and USC has lost a lot of games they were favorites in, and lost to lesser teams and their quarterback play is just not above average. Washington has covered four of their last five games versus USC. USC is 2-10 ATS at home as a favorite.

Best bet: take the points with Washington.
