USC Basketball Vs Arizona: How To Watch, Betting Odds, Predictions, More

The Trojans will host their Pac-12 foe for the last time in a long time.

The USC Trojans will look to finish their 2023-2024 regular season on a strong note. The Trojans will host the Arizona Wildcats for a Senior Night matchup on Saturday for the last time as members of the Pac-12, barring a Pac-12 Tournament battle. 

USC will look to play spoiler to the number five-ranked Wildcats and look to head into the Pac-12 tournament on a three-game win streak. The Trojans, currently sitting at 13-17, did not have the season they envisioned. 

They are the home underdogs to the Wildcats, with the spread at -7.5 in favor of the Wildcats. The over/under is set at 161.5, and the money line is set at +260 for the Trojans and -325 for Arizona. According to ESPN analytics, they have a 13.6% chance of winning the game.

The game will be televised on ESPN, with game time set to start at 7 p.m. PT at the Galen Center. Dave Pasch will be on the call doing play-by-play, while Sean Farnham will be the lead analyst. 

USC is 5-4 in its last nine games with two of the losses coming in overtime and one being a one-possession game. USC has won its previous two games and is seeking its first three-game winning streak of the season.

The last time the Trojans met the Wildcats, they fought hard. However, they could not come back from a ten-point deficit at halftime, losing the game 82-67 on January 17th. DJ Rodman was the Trojans' leading scorer and rebounder, dropping 16 points and notching seven boards. USC freshman Bronny James led the team with six assists. 

USC sits at 45-74 all-time against Arizona and is 8-7 all-time at the Galen Center against Arizona. The Trojans have the edge against the Wildcats at home, but I don't think it will be enough even though they are playing good basketball. 

Arizona 76, USC 67.
