UCLA vs. USC Predictions

In order to make accurate UCLA vs. USC predictions, our sports betting model has sorted through thousands of historical college football games to find similar matchups. We can then draw comparisons and find value based on this analysis. 

The model found that the total is higher than 100% of the 13 most historically similar matchups. That warrants a play on Under 76 total points. 

Both of these teams can score, but there’s value in taking Under 76 total points on Saturday. All but one UCLA game has fallen short of 76 total points this season. That was a 50-36 victory at Arizona State on Nov. 5.

It only takes a couple of long, empty drives to jeopardize the over in this matchup. Ultimately, that’s too tall of a number to climb. Take the under.
