The Pac-12 is wasting little time in jumping into its conference schedule, at least for a pair of teams. No. 14 USC will visit Stanford on Saturday at 7:30 p.m. ET as part of the Week 2 college football schedule, with Lincoln Riley getting a national audience to showcase his offense. The Trojans are coming off a 52-point thrashing of Rice, but haven’t won at Stanford Stadium since 2014. Caesars Sportsbook has USC as a 9-point favorite in the latest Week 2 college football odds, with the over/under set at 65.5.
All of the Pac-12’s other teams in action will face non-conference foes, including Arizona State vs. Oklahoma State (-12) and Arizona vs. Mississippi State (-10.5). It wasn’t the best of season openers for the conference last week with both Utah and Oregon losing. Can the Pac-12 regain some cachet in its non-conference matchups, and which side of the USC vs. Stanford spread should you back with your Week 2 college football bets?

Top college football predictions for Week 2
One of the college picks the model is high on in Week 2: Pittsburgh covers as a 6-point home underdog against Tennessee in a 3:30 p.m. ET matchup on Saturday. Pitt picked up the 41-34 win in Knoxville in the first half of this home-and-home series last year. The Vols return a lot of firepower on offense, and Pitt’s loss of Kenny Pickett is a big reason why Tennessee is favored in this one, despite being on the road.
USC transfer Kedon Slovis looks to be a suitable replacement after he guided the Panthers to a win over West Virginia in the Backyard Brawl last week. The Vols weren’t tested to that…
