USC (14-14, 6-11) will be fighting for an invite to the Big Ten Tournament while the Oregon Ducks (20-8, 9-8) will look to further seal an NCAA Tournament bid when the two meet Saturday in Eugene. Last weekend, Oregon rallied from 12 points down at halftime to force overtime and eventually knock off what had been a white-hot Wisconsin Badgers squad, 77-73. It was the Ducks’ fourth straight win as they climbed above .500 in the conference. The Trojans have lost four in a row most recently falling at home to Ohio State on Wednesday night, 87-82. A loss by Oregon puts them on the brink of elimination from qualifying for the Big Ten Tournament later this month.
