Meant to track as full unit

Alternate Total on DraftKings, crossing the key of 59. Will add another half unit on USC Team Total Over when available in market this week

USC reloaded at receiver and should take this first three games to really develop the passing timing and continuity. Their rushing offense will be explosive here. Jose will play fast but that could lead to mistakes/turnovers/ quick possessions and short fields for USC. I would imagine whoever wins the SJSU qb job should be familiar with the system but even in the 2H of a blowout getting the BU QB some reps will be desired. Should be a ton of passing as the Spartans run game is very weak and won’t do well here I could see USC scoring in the 50s themselves here and usc the last four years under Lincoln Riley have really run it up in early season non-con. Over the L4 seasons USC has averaged 61 points in their G5 openers with an eye popping 73 last year against Missouri St (59 the following week) , 56 and 66 against MWC opponents in 2023, and 66 against rice in 2022. I don’t think we see clock chewing and running the ball early in the 2H, so expect a huge point total once again for USC, while Jose is likely good for 10-14 points. Game should clear this total. Good to 60.5
