In this week's edition of the Triple Double Podcast, hosts Shotgun Spratling and Connor Morrissette break down the USC men's basketball's 90-72 loss to No. 7 Purdue as well as the program's dominant bounce back 92-67 win over Penn State. On the women's side, the duo discusses USC's 84-63 win over No. 8 Ohio State and JuJu Watkins' sideline demeanor that drew a lot of attention after the game.

USC men's basketball graduate forward Matt Knowling joins the show to talk about returning to action after missing seven games due to injury. He also discusses Eric Musselman's coaching style, what the Big Ten road trips have been like for USC and why this team has bonded the way it has despite having unique pieces from so many different origins.

Shotgun and Connor then look at where both Trojan teams stand and then look forward at the upcoming matchups for the men and women. They preview the Women of Troy's massive top 10 clash with No. 1 UCLA for first place in the Big Ten Thursday night inside the Galen Center before a trip to Seattle to take on Washington. The men have an opportunity to climb in the conference standings going up against 4-9 Minnesota in the Galen Center Saturday, but with that opportunity comes a likely must-win game against a Quad 3 opponent.
