One month after allowing a season-worst 81 points to the Cougars, the Trojans look forward to a ‘statement game’ in Thursday’s rematch at the Galen Center
LOS ANGELES — USC’s 81-71 loss at Washington State on New Year’s Day was a shock to the Trojans’ system.
So as USC prepares for its rematch with the Cougars on Thursday night at the Galen Center, the Trojans understand there’s a chance to measure their growth over the past month. In the first game, USC allowed Washington State to make 14 of 29 attempts from 3-point range. Trojans head coach Andy Enfield, who called the game USC’s worst defensive performance of the year, felt like his team didn’t make any effort to guard the 3-point line.
“It was very disappointing,” Morgan said. “That was a really big shock to us. We really needed to hone in on our 3-point defense, just defense in general. We’ve always been pretty good on two-point percentage defense but after that game we really realized we need to kick it up a notch and potentially win the Pac-12.”
