USC expert previews the Arizona men’s basketball game, makes a score prediction

The USC Trojans were supposed to be one of Arizona’s first Pac-12 opponents, with the two originally set to meet Jan. 2 in Los Angeles before COVID got in the way of things. That game has yet to be rescheduled, making USC’s trip to McKale Center on Saturday the first meeting between the teams this season.

USC (19-3, 9-3 Pac-12) is ranked No. 19 in the country but was as high as fifth in mid-January as it started 13-0. The Trojans are coming off a 58-53 win at ASU on Thursday that saw them rally from down eight midway through the second half.
