USC enters the 2026 season ranked No. 14 with a deep roster returning 17 starters, led by quarterback Jayden Maiava in his third year under head coach Lincoln Riley. The addition of defensive coordinator Gary Patterson has raised expectations for improved unit performance after a 9-4 finish in 2025. Early results include a 42-26 win over San Jose State and a 39-0 shutout of Fresno State, showcasing offensive efficiency and defensive progress. However, the Big Ten schedule features road tests at Rutgers and Penn State plus home games against Oregon and Ohio State, creating a narrow margin for error around the typical 8.5 win total line. Roster health, particularly along the offensive line and in the front seven, plus freshman contributions from the top-ranked class, will shape outcomes in conference play.

Only official regular-season games count. Conference championship games, bowl games, and College Football Playoff games do not count even if the NCAA recognizes them as such. Only played games resulting in a win will count toward this total.

If the 2026 NCAA Division 1 Football regular season is cancelled, postponed after December 26, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, or it cannot be determined how many wins the listed team recorded within that timeframe, this market will resolve to "No".
The primary resolution source will be official NCAA and conference records (https://www.ncaa.com); however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
