You got to think this is a bit of a let down spot for USC. At home last week, the Trojans led USC 20-6 and end up losing in overtime. I think it is a bad spot for them.
And then a horrible home loss for Maryland last week against Northwestern. Northwestern led that game 17-7 after 3 quarters, win the game 37-10. 4 turnovers for Maryland in that game, 3 lost fumbles. Northwestern had only 10 first downs in that game.
Maryland still has a good QB with Edwards and USC is #120 in completion % allowed
Not a great rush defense either for USC, #92 in yards per carry allowed
Maryland on defense #2 in takeaways per game at 2.8
Maryland has been inconsistent but I think offensively, they can put up points here, bounce back from those turnovers from last week.
