USC vs. Oregon State: Previews, TV schedule, odds and more

After a short week of practice in preparation for this road contest, USC (5-3, 2-2) is gearing up to slow down the best passing attack in the nation. In recent history, the Trojans have lost three straight games in Corvallis and will look to snap that streak in a festive post-Halloween showdown.

"You just can't have a lot of checks. Keep it simple, gotta do what we do. Just gotta get our assignments down," coach Orgeron says, describing his teams' needs heading into a tough road environment.

Despite some recent struggles, USC leads the all-time series with Oregon State, 59-11-4, and have also won 32 of the last 36 meetings with the Beavers. While the Trojans look to dispell some nasty deamons from their Corvallis closets, here is all you need to know for tonight's game.
