USC Trojans vs. Oregon Ducks Betting Sweet Sixteen Latest Odds

At the onset of the season was a lot of ridicule about the Pac-12 Conference.  And justifiably so.  Outgoing commissioner Larry Scott leaves a league that has financially and competitively fallen behind.  All of which makes the Pac-12 March Madness betting performance so stunning.  Oregon State, UCLA, USC, and Oregon are in the Sweet Sixteen.  It is the best showing of any conference in the nation.  As a result, two of those Pac-12 teams will meet on Sunday.  Oregon and USC will fight for an Elite Eight berth.  Both teams are peaking at the perfect moment.
