USC football looks to get back on track in Week 8 of the college football season — and it will look to do so with a cross-country flight.

Coming off back-to-back losses, Lincoln Riley's Trojans (3-3, 1-2 in Big Ten) travel out east for their furthest road trip of the season in Week 8 to take on Maryland (3-3, 0-3) at SECU Stadium in College Park, Maryland on Saturday.

Riley's squad fell out of the national polls this week after losing to No. 3 Penn State 33-30 in overtime. All three of USC's losses this year have been within one score. Trojans quarterback Miller Moss ranks fourth in the Big Ten in passing yards per game at 269.7 through the first seven weeks of the season.

With USC joining the Big Ten this past offseason from the Pac-12, Saturday's meeting just outside the nation's capital will be the first between the Trojans and the Terrapins. Maryland is coming off a 37-10 loss to Northwestern last week.

USC 35, Maryland 14: While it is hard to predict how a team will perform after traveling coast to coast, USC should get back in the win column and snap its two-game losing skid with ease on Saturday. Winning on third down and keeping the Terps off the board will be big for the Trojans on Saturday. USC ranks sixth in the nation (first in the Big Ten) on third down conversation percentage defense (27.1%) this season.
