Turning defense into offense. One more moment for this sequence >>> kennedy•smith jazzy

LIVE UPDATES: Follow along throughout the night as Ahmad Akkaoui will be manning the live updates for #USC's matchup with #Northwestern 247sports.com/college/usc/ar…

When will USC stop the run? Not today apparently. Caleb Komolafe has 70 rushing yards and a touchdown on eight carries. Embarrassing.

Back for the second half. Live Updates: No. 20 USC leads 21-14 over Northwestern in the Coliseum 247sports.com/college/usc/ar…

Coast-to-Coast Trojans ☁️

Somebody save Braylan Conley! Northwestern has thrown to the receiver he's covering almost every single time.

USC head coach Lincoln Riley was asked about the rumors about him leaving for another program. His answer was simple: “You guys know what I sacrificed to be here. I’m where I need to be.”

Workin' in the Queen City 👑

A moment for the USC Kobe 5s 🔥

No. 20 Iowa scores the TD with 1:51 left in the game to take the lead over No. 9 Oregon in Iowa City. The 2-point conversion was unsuccessful, and it’s 16-15 Hawkeyes. USC’s next opponent currently beating USC’s opponent in two weeks. Lots of time left for the Ducks.

Hope is gone. Oregon went 54 yards and got a great opportunity for a 39-yard field goal. Kick goes in. Oregon leads 18-16 with 3 seconds left. 6-3 Iowa’s win streak ends at 3 games. It will be in the Coliseum next Saturday.

On the national stage today ✌️ 🆚 NC State ⏰ 12 PM PT 📺 ESPN 📍 Spectrum Center

Game 2 on deck ✌️

Another one for KD! 🎯 Charlotte shootaround ✔️

No. 18 USC vs. No. 9 NC State in Charlotte tips off at 12 p.m. PST on ESPN. The Wolfpack opened their season by upsetting Tennessee, and 6-foot-2 forward Khamil Pierre had 21 points in that game. Should be a good matchup between Pierre and 6-foot-2 guard Kennedy Smith.

✌️✌️✌️✌️

Starting lineups for USC v. NC State: Malia Samuels, Kara Dunn, Kennedy Smith, Jazzy Davidson, Gerda Raulušaityte (1st start) for the Women of Troy Zamareya Jones, Zoe Brooks, Qadence Samuels (UConn transfer), Khamil Pierre (Vandy transfer), Tilda Trygger for the Wolfpack

6-foot-3 Raulušaityte vs. 6-foot-6 Trygger will be the matchup to look at. Trygger is a good rebounder (and tall), so boxing her out and getting her out of position to grab boards is key.

#USC-#NCState WBB will tip off at 3:07 p.m. EST. It will begin on the ESPN App, if #Indiana-#Marquette MBB game has not completed (3:30 remains).

Horrible start to USC’s day. It is 3-of-14 shooting but down by just two points because the defense limited NC State to just 3-of-11 shooting. 8-6, Wolfpack. 4:38 left in the 1st quarter.
