Way too much chalk for a game that is supposed to be high-scoring, and not necessarily by both teams (see last year).

~ NOT A SAFE BET ~

In USC last 45 victories, only five were decided by less than a touchdown.

33 of those 45 victories were decided by 20 points or more.

"Safe bet" is probably the biggest oxymoron in the history of the world.

That 3 points you just bought leading you to double your stake forces you to hit this wager 66% of the time to break even. If USC covers the 7, they are going to cover the 10, and you'll lose.
