Betting Trends for vs
No one saw the USC Trojans and Oregon Ducks dominating their 2nd round games the way they did, but it shows how good the Pac-12 really was this season which makes this a Pac-12 heavyweight bout. The Trojans dominated the Oregon Ducks in their February 22nd matchup due to a big outing from Tahj Eaddy, and they didn’t even play with Isaiah Mobley as he was out due to injuries. The Trojans are an elite defensive team as they are holding their opponents to an average of 64.4 PPG, but they have proven their worth scoring the basketball as they scored 85 points on a very good Kansas defense. The difference-maker in this game is the interior presence of the Mobley brothers, and I expect them to be supplemented nicely with Eaddy and Peterson draining outside shots. Final Score Prediction, USC Trojans win and cover ATS 72-66.
