Men's Basketball | September 27, 2018
Nearly every game on the 2018-19 USC men's basketball schedule will be televised on one of the ESPN networks, CBS, FOX, Fox Sports 1 or the Pac-12 Network, it was announced by the Pac-12 Conference today (Sept. 27). In addition, all games will be broadcast on USC's flagship station ESPNLA 710, one of its affiliates or on the TuneIn Radio app. Tickets for the 2018-19 season are on sale now. Fans should call 213-740-GOSC (4672) or visit

USC's men's basketball program looks to continue its ascent to the top of the conference during the 2018-19 season as it returns seven of its top 10 scorers from last season and had
added a dynamic three-man freshman class which is ranked No. 15 in the country. USC went 24-12 and finished second in the Pac-12 last season, its highest finish outright since the 1992, and has won a school-record 71 games over the last three seasons.
USC will play roughly a third of its games on one of the ESPN network platforms, beginning with the two games at the NABC Hall of Fame Classic in Kansas City, Mo. The Trojans will play 2018 NCAA Elite Eight team Texas Tech Nov. 19 at 6:30 p.m. on ESPN2 and then either Nebraska or Missouri State on Nov. 20 at either 4 or 6:30 p.m. on ESPN3 or ESPN2. USC will also play Oklahoma in Tulsa, Okla. on Dec. 15 at 6:00 p.m. on ESPNU. The Pac-12 contests on one of the ESPN platforms are Jan. 6 vs. Stanford at 5:00 p.m., Jan. 10 at Oregon State at 8:00 p.m., Jan. 13 at Oregon at 5:00 p.m., Jan. 26 vs. Arizona State at 5:00 p.m., Feb. 9 vs. Colorado at 7:00 p.m., Feb. 13 at Stanford at 8:00 p.m., Feb. 21 vs. Oregon at 6:00 p.m. and Feb. 28 at UCLA at 6:00 p.m.
USC will host UCLA at the Galen Center on Jan. 19 at 1:00 p.m. and that game will be televised by CBS. The last three home games versus UCLA have been sellouts.
The home game vs. Nevada on Dec. 1 at 1:30 p.m. will be televised on FOX television. Nevada went 29-8, reached the 2018 NCAA Sweet 16 and returns nearly its entire team. USC will also appear on FS1 four times during the season, beginning with the Hoophall LA matchup with TCU on Dec. 1 at 6:30 p.m. at the Staples Center. USC will also be on FS1 on Jan. 24 vs. Arizona at 6:00 p.m., Jan. 30 at Washington at 8:00 p.m. and March 7 at Utah at 7:00 p.m.
