  A BIPOLAR DARKHORSE?
 
The Trojans are a classic talented-but-inexperienced team. They played UCLA awfully tough twice, beat Arizona twice, beat Oregon twice, and looked great in the process. Yet, they also gave Arizona State their only conference win, lost big at Washington, and will enter the NCAA tournament playing inconsistently. Give this team a tough...
