Who's Playing

Georgia Tech @ No. 10 Southern California

Current Records: Georgia Tech 5-4; Southern California 11-0

What to Know

The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets will take on the #10 Southern California Trojans at 4 p.m. ET Saturday at Footprint Center. The Trojans should still be riding high after a win, while Georgia Tech will be looking to right the ship.

The matchup between the Yellow Jackets and the LSU Tigers on Saturday was not a total blowout, but with Georgia Tech falling 69-53, it was darn close to turning into one. One thing holding Georgia Tech back was the mediocre play of center Rodney Howard, who did not have his best game: he played for 28 minutes but put up just seven points on 3-for-11 shooting.

Meanwhile, the UC Irvine Anteaters typically have all the answers at home, but on Wednesday USC proved too difficult a challenge. USC snuck past the Anteaters with a 66-61 victory. The top scorers for the Trojans were forward Chevez Goodwin (23 points) and forward Isaiah Mobley (22 points). That makes it three consecutive games in which Isaiah Mobley has had at least 12 rebounds.

The Yellow Jackets are expected to lose this next one by 8.5. Now might not be the best time to take Georgia Tech against the spread since they've let down bettors for the past five consecutive games.

Georgia Tech's defeat took them down to 5-4 while Southern California's win pulled them up to 11-0. On Wednesday USC relied heavily on Mobley, who dropped a double-double on 22 points and 12 rebounds. It will be up to Georgia Tech's defense to limit his damage.
