Tipoff, TV Info and Venue
USC (4-0) meets Boise State (4-1) on Monday, Nov. 24, at 5 p.m. ET at the Lahaina Civic Center in Maui. The opener of the 2025 Maui Invitational will air on ESPN2, with streaming on ESPN-app compatible devices.
Latest Odds and Betting Lines
• Spread: USC -5.5
• Over/Under: 152.5 points
• Moneyline: USC -235 | Boise State +195
Why the Trojans Are Favored
• Backcourt depth: Isaiah Collier’s return from a minor ankle tweak teams with Roddy Rice, who is shooting 53 % from three through four games.
• Pace & space: Andy Enfield’s squad ranks top-30 nationally in assist rate (16.0 per game last season) and averages 77 points, ideal for Maui’s friendly rims.
• Length on defense: 6-11 freshman Arrinten Page and veteran Joshua Morgan protect the paint, holding opponents below 40 % inside the arc this month.
How Boise State Can Spring the Upset
• Second-chance points: The Broncos pull 10.0 offensive boards per game, led by Dominic Parolin, and face a USC group that turned it over 12.8 times a night last season.
• Experience edge: Senior guard Max Rice (no relation to USC’s Roddy) averages 17.4 ppg and has played in two NCAA tournaments.
• Perimeter D: Leon Rice’s mix of matchup zone has limited foes to 29 % from three; Collier and Kobe Johnson must stay patient.
Key Matchups to Watch
1. Isaiah Collier vs Chibuzo Agbo – Collier’s downhill drives test Agbo’s on-ball defense and the Broncos’ rim rotation.
2. Joshua Morgan vs Tyson Degenhart – Stretch-five Degenhart (38 % 3PT) will drag Morgan outside, opening lanes for back-cuts.
3. Bench minutes – USC freshman guard Silas Demary Jr. provides instant energy; Boise State counters with athletic wing Pavle Kuzmanovic.
Prediction
USC’s shot-making and size should win out, but Boise State’s rebounding will keep it tight. Projection: USC 79, Boise State 73 (Boise +5.5 cashes; Under 152.5 squeaks by).
