Update: UCLA (11-6 overall, 2-2 in Pac-12 Conference games) has won its last six games against USC — by an average margin of 19 points. But the Trojans (14-3, 3-1) are the best they have been in three years — since Coach Andy Enfield arrived at USC and Coach Steve Alford landed at UCLA.
Both team are coming off sweeps over Arizona State and then-No. 7 Arizona last week. USC won its game in four overtimes. UCLA won its on a three-pointer by Bryce Alford with 1.8 seconds remaining.
Six players average scoring in double digits for USC. Five score between 12.2 and 12.9 points a game. All five of UCLA’s starters score in double-digits. And UCLA might have an extra option.
Steve Alford said “there is a chance” forward Gyorgy Goloman, who hasn’t played this season because of a stress fracture in his leg, might play.
