The race in the PAC-12 is very good this season and both of these teams are in the thick of it. Utah is just slightly ahead of the Trojans at the moment.
Both of these teams have a shot at taking the regular season title if they close strong and look like sure bets to be in the Big Dance.
The PAC12 tries to help us through Sunday evenings now that there is no NFL and I am grateful for the distraction.
Utah Utes
The Utes were really good last year but this year they are kind of below the radar. They are still pretty darn good though.
[dfads params=’groups=226&limit=1&return_javascript=1′]
Utah is coming into this one on a three game winning streak and off a close win at UCLA on Thursday. They have Arizona in their sights.
The Utes have one of the best finesse bigs around in Jacob Poetl. He leads the team in scoring and rebounding. The rest of the team is solid but he is the difference maker.
This is a rare team that is really strong upfront. Led by Poetl their three leading scorers are all forwards. You almost never see that any more.
Utah has a losing record on the road this season so this one is not going to be easy. They will need to slow the pace of the Trojans.
USC Trojans
USC has definitely made strides this season but just how far remains to be seen. They are perfect at home though including a win over Arizona.
This one is going to be a battle of pace. The Trojans are one of the top scoring teams in the nation and want to push it.
Inside they have enough size to bother Poetl and the other Utah forwards. Freshman Chimezie Metu is quickly becoming a force on defense and all around.
PG Jordan McLaughlin sets the pace for USC. He is the team’s leading scorer and should be able to manoeuvre around the Utes defense.

Free Utah Utes vs. USC Trojans CBB Prediction:
Since the Utes joined the league they have been the better basketball program but things might be starting to change in LA.
