The USC Trojans Basketball team started strong on the season, taking down Kansas State and Cal State Bakersfield in their first two games. However, what was supposed to be an easy buy game for the Trojans, ended up in misery. 

The Trojans were short-handed, as injuries to Boogie Ellis and Kobe Johnson were certainly felt. Bronny James also did not make his debut, resulting in the team losing the contest with a 70-60 final score to the Anteaters. The social media ruckus was also felt, as many were flabbergasted at the USC dropping this win. 

Upset losses can happen at any time in any sport, but it is never great when buy games don't go as planned. The good news is that the USC Trojans Basketball team should rebound just fine, especially once the squad gets healthy. 

The Trojans will take on Brown on Sunday at 5:00 p.m. PST. The hope is that they can move past the loss and reclaim their top status within the PAC-12.
