It was déjà vu all over again as USC defeated UCLA on another last-second shot. Tahj Eaddy was 1 for 6 on 3-pointers before his game-winning shot. He was 4 for 13 overall before the shot. But it didn’t matter as he buried the corner 3-pointer. “It’s funny how things come full circle like that,” Eaddy said. “It was special to be able to do … Continue reading USC 64, UCLA 63

And Eady hits 3 to win it!! USC is off to a listless start, regrouped and then let UCLA stretch the halftime lead to 36-25. USC was 0 for 6 on 3-pointers in the first half. Tahj Eaddy was 1 for 5 from the field and had two points. That needs to change for USC to win the game. I’m not sure why Andy Enfield … Continue reading Discuss The USC-UCLA Game

Are you excited for today’s 1 p.m. tipoff at Pauley Pavilion with Pac-12 title implications? Who do you like? What’s the score?

All he can say? Why can’t he say more … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: Nothing Like Whining Over A Victory

What an advertisement for Pac-12/Stanford basketball. Simply awful basketball. USC doesn’t mind, however, as Tahj Eaddy returned to form with 16 points (6-8 FGs) while Evan Mobley had 10 points and eight rebounds in probably his last game at the Galen Center. Stanford missed 44 of 59 shots and shot 25 percent. If USC beats UCLA on Saturday and Oregon loses, the Trojans win the … Continue reading USC 79, Stanford 42
