We need to get used to referring to USC-UCLA as a Big Ten matchup, which happens for the first time tonight in what is still the Battle of LA. Jumping out as us lately is USC's current over stretch in which the Trojans have landed that way six straight and nine of ten games. Eric Musselman finally fit the pieces together for his transfer-heavy squad in early December, with Xavier transfer G Desmond Claude (21 or more points in three of the past four games) one of the hot scorers in the Big Ten. As for the Bruins, recent offensive eruptions vs. Iowa and Wisconsin and G Dylan Andrews rediscovering some of his shooting touch have keyed a current 3-game win streak. Play UCLA-USC Over
