Behind Enemy Lines: Auburn Basketball vs. USC preview with Trojans Wire’s Matt Zemek

Trojans Wire managing editor Matt Zemek sits down with Auburn Wire to preview Sunday’s game between Auburn and USC from the Trojan’s perspective.

The final two games of Auburn’s non-conference slate will take place on the west coast, beginning Sunday at USC.

Auburn travels to USC after bouncing back from a tough loss last Saturday to Memphis. Auburn shot 66% from the field in the 2nd half to defeat an upset-minded Georgia State squad on Wednesday, 72-64.

These next two games against USC and Washington will be pivotal for Auburn, as they look to continue ironing out its’ offensive identity before hosting Florida to open SEC play on Dec. 28. Can they get it done just in time for the Holidays?

In an effort to learn more about Sunday’s opponent, we called upon Trojans Wire managing editor Matt Zemek to shed some light on USC’s season to this point.

The Trojans enter the game with an 8-4 record, facing challenging opponents in BYU, Tennessee, and Wisconsin thus far. What has been the story of USC basketball through 12 games? Which Trojans should Auburn fans be aware of? All of those questions, and more, are answered below.
