The Indiana Hoosiers will try to extend their winning streak to four games as they take on another Californian powerhouse, the USC Trojans, on Tuesday at Galen Center.
Recommended Pick: USC Trojans -1.5 points
Potential Payout: $102 for every $100 Bet (+102).
Current Form:
The Hoosiers have racked up three wins in a row, beating Ruthers 82-59, Purdue 72-67 and UCLA 98-92 in 20T. Lamar Wilkerson, who averages a team-high 19.6 points on 44.9 FG% this season, dropped 24 points in the win over UCLA, but he got massive help from junior guard Nick Dorn, who posted 26 points and 7 rebounds in 48 minutes of play.
USC improved its record to 16-6 and 5-6 in the BIG 10 after edging Rutgers 78-75 in its last game on February 1. Averaging 75.3 points allowed per game this season, the Trojans defense limited the Scarlet Knights’ offense at 75 points on a cold 39 percent shooting from the field. Ezra Ausar scored a game-high 21 points, while Jacob Cofie and Chad Baker Marza contributed 15 and 17 points, respectively.

Our USC Trojans vs Indiana Hoosiers Prediction
Fearless Forecast: USC edges Indiana in a thriller, 69-66
Reason: I anticipate a highly physical, low-scoring ball game between USC and Indiana on Tuesday. These two teams are trying to stay relevant in the Big 10 and a win here will boost their position in the standings.
Indiana is 3-4 in road games, while USC is 8-3 on its home floor this season. The Trojans are also 14-6 in their last 20 games and 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games. The trends are boding well for USC to protect home court and snap Indiana’s three-game win streak.
Our betting prediction for the Indiana Hoosiers vs. USC Trojans: USC -1.5 points
