The Trojans are 19-9 ATS in their last 28 neutral site games and 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games overall. The Hawks are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games overall. The over is 5-1 in Trojans last 6 Thursday games. The over is 4-1 in Hawks last 5 overall.

The Saint Joseph’s Hawks have had big defensive issues in their last two games, and now they’re going up against an offensive powerhouse in USC. The USC Trojans have the potential to blow the doors off in this game. I’m not confident Saint Joseph’s can keep up here. Give me the Trojans and the chalk.
