Expert Pick & Final Score Prediction

This should be a fantastic game. The Trojans could keep the Ducks from winning the conference regular season title outright. The Ducks are just one game ahead of the Utah Utes. Oregon can really score, but look for the Trojans to be up to the task defensively, especially in their home gym. USC will record their 21st win of the season and come away with a home win. The bet for this game is definitely going to be the USC Trojans over the Oregon Ducks. An upset to wrap up Pac-12 play. Final score prediction is USC 71 and Oregon 67.
