The Nevada Wolf Pack will hit the road to start their 2023 campaign against the USC Trojans. Kickoff is scheduled at 6:30 p.m. ET on September 2nd at United Airlines Field at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.
Nevada were ranked 120th in the nation in points last season, having averaged a brutal 18.8 per game. USC, on the other hand, had no problems: they finished last season ranked third with 41.2 per game.
Nevada is the clear underdog, so they're hoping it's the size of the fight that determines this one. They finished last season with a mediocre 4-8 record against the spread, so bettors beware.
That disadvantage in the odds might be especially worrying for Nevada considering the team was a sub-par 1-7 as the underdog last season. While their fans probably aren't happy about it, betting on the team to lose was the smart play last year, and bettors who put $100 on that outcome every game finished the season up $1,346.93. On the other hand, USC will play as the favorite, and the team was 10-1 as such last season.
