Texas Arlington at USC

Texas Arlington comes off a 92-77 loss at home to Louisiana Tech shooting 41.8%. They return just two players from last season with 13 of 15 new faces. Coach K.T. Turn­er emphasizes defense and last season, Texas Arlington was fourth in the WAC in field goal shooting allowed (.422). The offense has struggled when stepping up in competition, though, scoring 56 points a year ago against Arizona. Two years ago, they lost 77-66 to Oklahoma State and LSU, 63-59. USC's defense has been sharp under Eric Musselman in wins over Chattanooga (77-51) and Idaho State (75-69). Take Texas Arlington/USC UNDER the total.
