The USC Trojans are led in scoring by Isaiah Mobley who averages 14.7 points and 8.7 rebounds for this team. Chevez Goodwin averages 12.8 points and 7.5 rebounds a game for this team. Boogie Ellis is the third leading scorer for the Trojans as he averages 12.2 points a game for this team.

The Trojans are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games following a straight up win of more than 20 points and are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 home games. The Cardinal are 6-1-1 ATS in their last 8 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record and are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up win. Most people will look at the fact that these two teams played the same opponent in Arizona State, but in Stanford’s game, they were up for a good portion before only winning by 3. The Cardinal will be motivated in this one against a rival and this is just too many points to lay with USC. I’ll take Stanford plus the points.
