Texas and USC will battle in a classic matchup on Saturday evening in Southern California. Here’s how you can watch the game.

USC and Texas’ last matchup was back in 2006. If you don’t remember, it was the infamous Rose Bowl game that featured Pete Carroll, Matt Leinart, Reggie Bush, Vince Young and a lot of big names. Texas won that game — the only time they’ve beaten USC in five tries.

The two will go head-to-head in Southern California once again on Saturday, featuring much different programs, 11 years later. Texas comes into this game under their young, new head coach Tom Herman. They dropped the opener in ugly fashion to Maryland, but bounced back against San Jose State.

On the flip side, USC is rolling come into this game, behind Sam Darnold and their running game. USC defeated Western Michigan and Stanford at home and are looking to continue their winning ways to a National Championship.

Texas will have a question at quarterback, either Shane Buechele or freshman Sam Ehrlinger. After Buechele couldn’t go in Week 2, the freshman signal caller led an efficient offense to a 56-0 victory. USC brings in far more stability at their skill positions, with Darnold manning the quarterback role and Ronald Jones II handling the rushing load.

Here’s how you can watch the game:

According to SportsBookReview, USC is favored by 14 points in this game. The moneyline is set to +575 for Texas and -750 for the Trojans. The over/under total for the game is set to 69 points.

USC is the better team, with the better quarterback and coach. They should cover the 14 points at home against a young Texas team. Texas will need to have a perfect gameplan, good run defense and an efficient offense to knock off USC on the road.
