I'm mildly surprised Dayton isn't favored. USC is pretty wretched. They have two big seven footers, but from everything I've seen, they both need assistance from the coaching staff to tie their shoes. I'm boldly predicting a Flyer win.

Yeah I was also surprised Dayton wasn't favored, I get that it's on the road but USC is pretty terrible this year.

Yahoo! Odds

All five of the online bookies now list USC as a 3-point favorite.

This means most bettors have been taking USC minus the points.

Hopefully, they will get hit hard in the pocket around 9:00 tonight.

On the WHIO Radio pregame broadcast, Bucky Bockhorn said that Matt Derenbecker and Devin Oliver were suffering from flu. Bucky said he asked Devin Oliver how he was feeling this afternoon, and Devin replied "bad".

Hopefully, Matt and Devin will feel well enough to play effectively tonight (this afternoon in Los Angeles).

Dayton looking bad in the first half. 8 turnovers already and letting their 5 point a game stiff down low score 8.

Muddy Waters · 12-30-2012, 04:50 PM

Halftime: USC 27, Dayton 20, as the Trojans close out the first half with a 5-0 run.

The Trojans looked a lot better than advertised and clearly out-played the Flyers in the first half.

Fortunately, Dayton is still within striking distance, but the Flyers need to shoot the ball a lot better in the second half after making only 31 % of their FGs in the first half (and 0-5 on 3-pointers).

Former Fordham Ram Jio Fontan is playing great defense on Kevin Dillard.

owlfan2272 · 12-30-2012, 04:51 PM

27-20 USC leads Dayton at the half. Dayton has to start shooting better.

bprichard · 12-30-2012, 05:06 PM

It's never a good sign when you're giving up points to a guy of whom the home announcers say "He hasn't played a lot of basketball." In any case, USC remembered they are a deficient offensive team and more or less stopped scoring. Hopefully Dillard will find his game in the second half. He's done it before.

Muddy Waters · 12-30-2012, 05:20 PM

USC 33, Dayton 24 with 15:35 left in the game - USC's biggest lead so far.

USC 37, Dayton 27 with 14:13 left in the game - USC's biggest lead so far.

Trojans looking very good.
