USC vs Utah: Kickoff Time, TV Channel, Radio and Odds

With one conference loss already suffered by the Trojans, USC vs Utah has the feel of a must-win contest in the race for the Pac-12 South title.

The Trojans once again find themselves in need of a bounce back after falling to 1-2 on the season. Losses to Alabama and Stanford left USC reeling, but a win over Utah would set the Trojans in pole position in the division.

Meanwhile, Utah has started the season perfect, with wins over Southern Utah, San Jose State and a tightly contested rivalry tilt against BYU.

Kyle Whittingham’s squad are out for revenge and redemption of their own after last year’s loss to USC at the Coliseum — the start of their slide to a second-place finish despite beginning the season on a 6-0 tear.

Betting Odds: Utah (-3)

Utah is favored by three points, enjoying a home-field advantage boost over the Trojans, per the VegasInsiders.com consensus line.

The line opened on Sunday with the Utes favored by four, but it quickly dropped closer to even, at 1.5-points by Sunday night.

Turmoil within the Trojan ranks with a quarterback change announced Monday and rumors of displeasure around the program swirling helped shift the line back up to three.

The over/under currently stands at 46.5.
