The USC Trojans will try to bounce back from an ugly loss on Saturday night when they play host to <\/span><\/font>Washington<\/st1:PlaceName> State<\/st1:PlaceType><\/st1:place>. The No. 12 Trojans fell in the rankings last week after they were upset 16-13 by Washington<\/st1:place><\/st1:State>. Trojans QB Aaron Corp threw for just 110 yards and was picked off once in that loss; he was filling in for Matt Barkley, who missed the game with a bruised shoulder. Barkley is listed as probable for Saturday’s contest, and he’ll have to be on his game for USC to cover the spread – they’ve been listed as big 45.5-point favorites vs. the Cougars.<\/p>\n

The only ranked matchup on Saturday has No. 9 Miami at No. 11 Virginia Tech, with the Hurricanes pegged as 3-point road favorites. Miami<\/st1:place><\/st1:City> is coming off a 33-17 win over Georgia Tech last time out, with Jacory<\/span> Harris throwing for 270 yards and three scores to move the team to 2-0. The Hokies edged Nebraska<\/st1:place><\/st1:State> 16-15 last week to improve to 2-1; Tyrod<\/span> Taylor threw a late TD pass to secure the win.<\/p>\n

Top-ranked Florida<\/st1:place><\/st1:State> (-22) plays at Kentucky<\/st1:place><\/st1:State> on Saturday, while No. 2 Texas (-36) hosts UTEP<\/span>. As well, it’ll be Arkansas<\/st1:place><\/st1:State> at No. 3 Alabama (-17.5), Iowa at No. 5 Penn State (-9.5), No. 6 California (-5.5) at Oregon<\/st1:place><\/st1:State>, No. 7 LSU (-12.5) at Mississippi<\/st1:PlaceName> State<\/st1:PlaceType><\/st1:place>, and No. 8 Boise State (-16.5) at Bowling Green<\/span><\/st1:place><\/st1:City>. No. 4 Mississippi played on Thursday night, and No. 10 Oklahoma is off this weekend.<\/p>\n

As well, there are a couple of Canadian Football League games on the Saturday schedule, with Saskatchewan<\/st1:place><\/st1:State> at Edmonton<\/st1:place><\/st1:City> and Toronto<\/st1:place><\/st1:City> at Winnipeg<\/st1:place><\/st1:City>. The Eskimos are pegged as 3.5-point home favorites against the Riders in that first contest, while the Blue Bombers are slim 1-point home faves<\/span> against the Argos<\/st1:place><\/st1:City>.<\/p>\n

It’ll be Daisuke Matsuzaka (3-5, 6.80 ERA) vs. CC Sabathia (18-7, 3.31 ERA) on Saturday afternoon as the Red Sox continue their series in New York<\/st1:place><\/st1:State>. Righthander<\/span> Matsuzaka has won back-to-back outings for Boston<\/st1:place><\/st1:City> since returning from the disabled list, holding the O’s and Angels to three runs over 11 1-3 innings of work.
