After the Trojans beat fellow Sun Belt-foe Arkansas State by 49 last week, it’s hard to see the Vandals doing much better. I think junior punter/kicker Austin Rehkow has himself a good day with four field goals from long range.

The advantage of being a big underdog is that team plays loose and with no pressure. Nobody expects Idaho to beat USC so the Vandals shouldn’t put pressure on themselves.

If the Vandals win on the road Saturday, I would imagine it would be one of the biggest upsets, if not the biggest upset, Idaho has ever been a part of and maybe one of the biggest upsets in college football history.

I don’t see that happening. The Trojans are too good to lose this one.

USC is stronger, faster and just more talented at every position. Look what the Trojans did to Arkansas State. Idaho has no chance.

I have a feeling it’ll be a good game as Idaho quarterback Matt Linehan will build his momentum from last week’s game against Ohio and put up some great numbers.

Linehan will put some points on the scoreboard. Sadly, it will be a brutal game to watch, so expect a typical game in which a top-10 team blows out an unranked team.
