Both the USC Trojans and the BYU Cougars are heading into this Roman Legends Classic clash unbeaten, USC with a 2-0 record while BYU is 3-0.

While BYU has been solid on both ends of the court ranking 23rd in the nation for points scored (92.0 ppg) and yet to allow more than 61 points on the season, note that USC has allowed almost 75 points per game.

The Trojans needed overtime to get past California Baptist as a 19-point favorite in their season opener before coming through with a better effort in a 76-62 win over Montana last time out.

BYU meanwhile has been dominant in each of its games, winning by an average of 32 points. Sure, this is no doubt a step up in competition compared to their previous opponents, but I think the Cougars are well worth a look in this one.

10* play on BYU Cougars.
