Episode 623: USC 38-Northwestern 17
It was a tale of two halves this past Friday in LA. The first half saw two teams trading punches back and forth. But one freak play turned the game on its head and USC pulled away in the second half. We look back at this game while also celebrating a hot start to the Men’s Basketball season and wishing the best of luck to both Women’s Soccer and Field Hockey as they enter their respective NCAA Tournaments.
