Arizona plays its final road game of the regular season on Tuesday night when it visits USC, but there’s so much more to this matchup than if it had been played in January as originally scheduled.
The second-ranked Wildcats (25-3, 15-2) would clinch the Pac-12 regular-season title with a victory, while the No. 16 Trojans (24-4, 14-4) can keep that race alive with a win. An Arizona win would also quickly erase memories of Saturday’s 16-point setback at Colorado, while also give it a 9-3 record on the road, which would tie for its most road wins since 2002-03.
