There aren't many college football experts who know Michigan football as well as Joel Klatt, who covers the sport for Fox Sports.
Klatt also produces a weekly podcast on college football. It's insightful, and he spent some time on Thursday's episode discussing the Michigan-USC game on Saturday in Los Angeles.
It should be a fascinating matchup. The Trojans are a 2.5-point favorite. Michigan is the ranked team (No. 15), but each program is 4-1 and looking to enter the playoff race in earnest.
Michigan has won a true road game this season, at Nebraska.
