USC Trojans: Mid-Season Swagger Under Lincoln Riley
Lincoln Riley had his USC Trojans in mid-season form right away this season. His quarterback, Caleb Williams, is the Heisman front-runner so far this season. The quarterback has thrown for 878 yards and 12 touchdowns on the season. His top target has been Tahj Washington, with nine receptions, three touchdowns, and 233 yards.
MaShawn Lloyd is the top running back for the Trojans. Lloyd has 195 rushing yards and two touchdowns this season. As a team, the Trojans are rushing for 185 yards per game. The passing attack is what is getting the ball downfield for USC. The Trojans rank fourth, with just shy of 400 yards per game. On the offensive side of the field, the USC Trojans have some of the best College Football players in the country.
The USC Trojans schedule shows they do not want to be caught looking ahead, as they have a trip to take on Deion Sanders and the Colorado Buffaloes next week.

Arizona State Sun Devils: Scoring Struggles Continue
The Arizona State Sun Devils have got to find a way to score. The Sun Devils have scored just 39 points in three games this season and were shut out at home by Fresno State last week. The Sun Devils have been the walking wounded, especially at the quarterback position. Most recently, Jaden Rashada was announced to be out for 4-6 weeks. He did not play against Fresno State. Trenton Bourguet played the first two drives in the loss before getting hurt. Drew Pyne also came into the game and left the game as well with an injury.
The shutout loss was the first time since 2008 and the first time at home since 1988. What the Sun Devils will do at quarterback, we are not sure, but likely sophomore Jacob Conover will be the guy. Arizona State will need to be better at running the football, but that’s been an issue all season, as they rank 121st in College Football, with under 96 yards per game. Cameron Skattebo is the top running back, averaging just shy of 50 yards per game.
The Sun Devils play at California next week before hosting Colorado in a stretch of six straight games against teams currently ranked inside the Top 25. The Arizona Sun Devils score prediction will be tough, as they are full of top players on the College Football injury report.
