USC will play Oklahoma in basketball at Staples Center on Dec. 8. Before anyone wants to tell me this is a sign Andy Enfield is beefing up the schedule, let’s look at the Sooners: They were 11-20 this past season and their leading scorer, Jordan Woodard, was a senior.
Once again Andyain’twinning be cupcaking his Non-Conf. BB schedule. When that game tips off, Staples Ctr., s/b about 20% filled.
You just need to worry about the slow white guys on your team
bozo u has won how many Men’s BB NC’s?
Sweet 16 with the #1 Overall NBA Pick AND another 1st rounder???????
What a joke.
That joke was 2 – 1 vs Andyaintwinning, and UCLA didn’t finish in 6 place.
You are 100% correct when you compare USC vs UCLA basketball. It’s no comparison.
However what should drive you crazy is to compare UCLA basketball the last 35 years to Duke, UNC, Kansas and Kentucky. Compare national championships, final fours, wins and crowd sizes to those programs. That too is no comparison.
Great points. UCLA is not even the best team in Pac12 over last 20 years.
Admit it fool- you wish Enfield, and not Alford was coaching the baby blues!
Somebody in Oklahoma is probably saying the same thing about scheduling us.
Does anyone think the blogger knows that Oklahoma made the Final Four the previous season, losing only to eventual national champ Villanova?
I mean, I’m sure the reason he didn’t mention it is because he’s fully aware of it and didn’t think it relevant, right?
It would be really hard to downplay scheduling OU if he had mentioned that. Or that OU is projected to be a top 25 team yet again this year. So, he either is ignorant of this or being purposefully unfair in his posting.
Don’t worry about it. He’s just trollin’ with this hot take.
OU returns most of their starters along with the No. 15 ranked recruit in the nation, Trae Young.
I am beginning to think that Wolf is the LaVar Ball of college basketball bloggers: purposely posting idiotic, ignorant statements he doesn’t really believe so that people will click on his links and post angry comments, driving more traffic to his blog.
If that is true (and I think it probably is), then I should take my own medicine and admit that I am an idiot and have fallen for the banana-in-the-tailpipe trick.
A firm grasp of the obvious.
Wolf – why don’t you make Andy Enfield a list of schools you’d approve of SC playing in non-conference? Apparently one that went to the final four last year wouldn’t make the list.
Andyain’winning should try to schedule Kentucky. Kentucky’s 2016 -17 starting five have all declared for the NBA Draft; therefore, Kentucky will most likely start five freshmen for 2017 – 18 season.
And Gonzaga, North Carolina and South Carolina.
They have played Kentucky in the past
This is a sign Andy Enfield is beefing up the schedule!
OK is a football school.
ucla is a softball school…
Hee, hee!
LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lavar Ball blaming the white kids on the Bruin basketball team.
I love this guy!!!!!!!!
He looks half white to me.
Sure does.
Racist sentiment. And yeah, I’m sure lottery pick TJ Leaf is deficient because he’s white. Go with that theory, Lavar.
So glad Lonzo is gone, and the bruins are stuck with Knuckleheaded LaVar. Poor Steve Alford!
He’ll be blaming the coach real soon.
Especially if LilAngie isn’t getting enough playing time!
The drama will unfold!
No doubt. Alford is going to regret ever meeting Lavar. The next brother coming in will enjoy a nice pro career- in Europe!
True
Yea, and didn’t he blame the coach when his younger sons lost to Mater Dei? What a piece of work, anything to get attention.
Yep.
Staples Center will be rocking, I can’t wait. Go Trojans B-ball, Fight On!!
And the year before that Oklahoma went to the Final Four. The Sooners field good teams and consistently play in the NCAA tournament. Yes this is a quality opponent
Trae Young
My question is, if you are a season ticket holder, do you get a ticket for this game or do you have to pay extra? Reality check, Sc will not sell out the Staples Center but might at the Galen Center. Why are they playing at the staples center instead of the Galen Center?
