The No. 7 USC Trojans (6-0, 4-0) are on the road this weekend, visiting Salt Lake City and the No. 20 Utah Utes (4-2, 2-1). The Trojans are looking to remain perfect this season and notch their first win over a ranked opponent. The Utes know a potential spot in the Pac-12 championship game could be at stake here. These teams have split the last two games, with both wins coming as the visiting team. Utah holds a 4-3 record against USC in Salt Lake City, but the Trojans are looking to prove things aren't the same this year as they've been in the past.
