The Oregon Ducks are in a bit of a letdown spot after their upset win over UCLA. The USC Trojans aren’t great against the number, but they’re comfortably the better team on both sides of the floor, and they usually rise to the occasion in big games. The favorite has covered 10 of their last 12 meetings between these clubs. Give me USC and the reasonable chalk.
