Tennessee Volunteers vs USC Trojans Point Spread Picks

A battle in the Bahamas! Tennessee pushes the tempo early with its four-guard attack, all averaging double-digits in scoring. They've averaged 32.5 first-half points in their last two contests and are 38-19 OVER the first-half total away from home when playing with one or fewer days of rest. They're also 31-13 OVER the first-half total when playing their second road game in three days. USC can push the tempo as well, with a three-guard attack led by Boogie Ellis (18 ppg) as they come off of an 82-76 win over BYU yesterday. With all this backcourt depth and talent, the wagering value is on a high-scoring first half. Take Tennessee/USC to play OVER the first-half total.
