The USC Trojans welcome the San Jose State Spartans to the Coliseum on Saturday afternoon in the first game of the season for both teams. The Trojans come into the season with high expectations and are looking to make the playoffs for the first time. It won’t be easy, though, as they have a tough six-game stretch in the middle of the season, but Saturday they come into the game as a huge favorite. The Trojans will play their first three games at home and five of their first six. Their lone road game during that stretch is against Rutgers in their Big Ten opener. They then have a six-game gauntlet that includes games against five teams currently ranked and has them heading to both Penn State and Indiana.
