USC Morning Buzz: That Familiar Feeling With Basketball Is Back
USC isn’t going to beat UCLA when Alijah Arenas goes 2 for 8 with five turnovers. Or forwards Ezra Ausar and Jacob Cofie are a combined 4 for 16. Maybe it was unrealistic to expect USC to beat UCLA at Pauley Pavilion but it was necesary with home losses to Northwestern and Oregon.

USC Notes: Who Is Pro Fans? Me!
UCLA is a 6.5-7.5-point favorite tonight against USC at Pauley Pavilion. The rematch is March 7 at the Galen Center.
