The Trojans started the season very strong, toppling No. 16 LSU 27-20 and shutting out Utah State before a Week 3 bye.

USC vs. Michigan Date, Start Time, Location
USC takes on Michigan today, Saturday, Sept. 21 at Michigan Stadium. Kickoff is at 3:30 p.m. ET/12:30 p.m. PT.
USC vs. Michigan Odds
As the higher ranked team, USC is the favorite to win today with the edge in a 5.5-point spread. The over/under is 44.5.
But the Wolverines still have a very good shot at taking this one. They have some star talent, like Cornerback Will Johnson and defensive tackle Mason Graham, and they’ll be using quarterback Alex Orji instead of Davis Warren. They’re also hard to beat at home — especially in front of a sold out stadium crowd.
USC, on the other hand, showcased a very effective new defense under its new coordinator coordinator D’Anton Lynn, and QB Miller Moss seems to be finding his groove.
