Weeks like this don’t come up too often in the college football season. The past few weeks had been fun slates, but nothing more than that.

This week is why we watch football. Let’s get into the picks.

#21 USC (4-0) -6.5 vs #23 Illinois (3-1) | Total: 60.5

I might have been incredibly wrong about Illinois last week, but I think Vegas has overcorrected on them. They are still a solid football team, despite everything they put on tape last week.

I think Bielema gets this team back on schedule, and unlike the Indiana game, they’re able to control the pace of this game back at home. Also, I wasn’t very impressed in USC’s first two Big 10 games on the season.
