Overview

  • Oregon (9-1, 6-1) faces USC (8-2, 6-1) at 12:30 p.m. PT/3:30 p.m. ET, airing nationally on CBS with streaming on Paramount+ and Fubo.
  • The matchup is widely framed as a de facto playoff elimination game, with the winner bolstering its CFP case and a Ducks loss jeopardizing Oregon’s at‑large resume.
  • Previews highlight a strength‑on‑strength test between Oregon’s No. 1 pass defense and USC’s explosive attack led by QB Jayden Maiava and receivers Makai Lemon and Ja’Kobi Lane.
  • Sportsbooks moved the spread from Oregon -8 to around -10/-10.5, and some models give the Ducks roughly a 70% win probability.
  • Availability notes include USC outs such as RB Eli Sanders and CB Chasen Johnson and multiple Oregon questionables at WR/RB/OL, as USC’s poor road record vs. ranked teams adds context to the Autzen setting.
