Oregon at USC

The Ducks are one year removed from a Final Four appearance, and one year away from a celebrated recruiting class ranked at or near the top of the country. Expectations were strong, despite losing a lot of key players from last year's team, and the Ducks could use a win here to solidify a NCAA Tournament bid. USC took a couple of blows as the program finds itself in the crosshairs of the FBI investigation, as well as losing perhaps their top player in Benny Boatright in mid-February to a knee injury. They had a five and two-point win vs. Oregon with Boatright, and I think they will struggle without him here, as the Ducks have steadily improved as the season has progressed. Play Oregon on the moneyline.
