USC Women's Basketball Vs UCLA: How To Watch, Odds, Predictions, And More

A tournament rivalry game at its finest!

One of the best parts of a conference tournament is the possibility of direct rivals facing off against one another for a third time. We have exactly that tonight as the USC Trojans and UCLA Bruins will meet up in the semi-finals of the Pac-12 Tournament.

Familiar foe tomorrow night.

The winner will advance to the championship game where they will face either Oregon State or Stanford. This is a bragging rights game, as much as it is for each team to advance further into the tournament. 

Both sides will make the NCAA Tournament based on their strong regular seasons, but eliminating your rival is all about pride.

How to Watch

The game is set for a 7:30 pm PT tip-off, coming from Las Vegas. The game will be streaming on the Pac-12 Network for those to watch.

Our Pac-12 Tournament semifinals are set:

Game 1: No. 1 Stanford vs. No. 4 Oregon State (8pm ET/5pm PT)

Game 2: No. 2 USC vs. No. 3 UCLA (10:30pm ET/7:30pm PT)

Odds

FanDuel has the Trojans listed as a +5.5 underdog entering this game against UCLA. The over/under is 135.5 for the game.

Predictions

Each team won on their home court during the regular season, so this is the rubber match. I think the Bruins take this game in a tight contest.

UCLA wins 64-60.

Star guard JuJu Watkins had one of her worst performances of the season in the Trojans' win over Arizona. Look for her to step things back up, as USC looks to vanquish their cross-town rival.
