The undefeated Penn State Nittany Lions will travel to USC for a highly anticipated Big Ten matchup on Saturday.
USC is looking to shake off the sting of a shocking 24-17 loss to Minnesota that sent the Trojans tumbling out of the AP poll. The Nittany Lions jumped up to No. 4 after moving to 5-0 with a 27-11 win over UCLA.
This contest will mark the first meeting between the two programs since USC's 52-49 win over Penn State in the 2017 Rose Bowl. The Nittany Lions haven't defeated the Trojans since 1996, and the Trojans lead the all-time series, 6-4.
Will Penn State keep rolling, or will USC pull off the upset? The Sporting News has everything you need to know about this showdown.
