Shotgun Spratling and Connor Morrissette (aka Mr. Triple Double) return with another episode of the The USC Triple-Double Podcast, breaking down the Women of Troy's road sweep of the Arizona schools, which included the best game of the year with the Trojans beating Arizona in double overtime without JuJu Watkins in crunch time. They also look into what USC mens road split at No. 19 Washington State and Washington means for the potential of the Trojans to make a run in the Pac-12 Tournament.

The men will get their chance in Las Vegas next week to try to make a four-day run to the NCAA tournament, but first the Women of Troy will try to improve upon their NCAA tournament resume with a run in this week's women's Pac-12 tournament. Shotgun and Connor preview how that could play out in a bracket as the No. 2 seed. USC enters this week's tournament with its highest ranking -- No. 5 -- in the Associated Press top 25 poll in 30 years and at No. 13 in the NET rankings. In the NCAA's latest unveiling of the projected top 16 seeds, the Trojans moved up from No. 9 to No. 8 and bumped up to a two seed.

Shotgun and Connor break down all the latest action for both teams, including looking closely at Isaiah Collier's career-best performance, helping will the Trojans to a win at Washington. They also look at all the accolades that JuJu Watkins continues to collect, including the Pac-12 Freshman of the Year award and a national Freshman of the Year honor. The podcasting duo also look at the positives and negatives of the recent USC basketball action from both squads, including the team efforts of the women to win without Watkins and the positive momentum the men have been building with a couple of players really fitting into their roles recently.

After the break, senior forward DJ Rodman joins the show to discuss the recent upswing in the Trojans' play and how they can carry it forward for the final week of the regular season and the Pac-12 Tournament next week. Rodman talks about the bond he's created with his teammates and why the group has stuck together and continued to fight for one another despite all the struggles and failure to meet expectations this season. Rodman also discusses the rapidly improving play of freshman Isaiah Collier and what it's like playing for head coach Andy Enfield.
