The Trojans head into Tuesday’s adjusted tilt on a six-game winning streak and surging towards the top of the Pac-12, knocking on the door of their rivals in UCLA. The good news for the Beavers is that they come into this one fresh off their own surprise victory over Arizona State, but it hasn’t exactly been as clean of a go for Oregon State.
Obviously, USC’s head of the snake is Evan Mobley, the projected lottery pick in the 2021 NBA Draft, who we recently named our Mid-Season Pac-12 Player of the Year. He’s an athletic, stat-stuffing talent who is hard to handle with just one defender, meaning the Beavers may look to double him or play within zone concepts this afternoon.
