USC defeats Stanford as 3 Trojans top 20 points

- L.J. Cryer scored

Freshman Isaiah Collier scored a career-high 26 points and USC defeated Stanford 9379 on Saturday to complete a weekend sweep.

The Trojans (8-7, 2-2 Pac12) had lost their opening Pac-12 games last weekend in Oregon, but they got back to .500 against the stubborn Cardinal.

Freshman Bronny James was limited to two points on 0-for-4 shooting in front of his father, Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James, who high-fived his son before the game. But once again, James was on the floor in the closing minutes for his defensive prowess.

Michael Jones scored 23 points, making all five of his 3-pointers, and Brandon Angel had 18 points to lead Stanford (7-7, 2-2). KANSAS 83, TCU 81 >> Hunter Dickinson scored with 3.4 seconds left to lift No. 2 Kansas past TCU.

Dickinson, who led Kansas with 30 points, hit a pair of free throws after a flagrant foul on TCU's Ernest Udeh Jr. with less than a minute remaining to tie the game. Dickinson then followed Dajuan Harris Jr.'s miss in the final seconds. NO. 3 HOUSTON 89, WEST VIRGINIA 55 >> 20 points, Damian Dunn added 14 points and Houston improved to 14-0 with a win over West Virginia in the Cougars' inaugural Big 12 contest.

NO. 5 TENNESSEE 90, NO. 22 MISSISSIPP­I 64 >> Jonas Aidoo scored 24 points and had 10 rebounds to lead Tennessee to victory over Mississipp­i in the Southeaste­rn Conference opener for both teams.

NO. 6 KENTUCKY 87, FLORIDA 85 >> Aaron Bradshaw hit a 3-pointer with 1:27 to play — just the third of the season for the 7-foot-1 freshman — and Kentucky rallied to beat Florida in the first Southeaste­rn Conference opener between the rivals in 26 years.

SETON HALL 78, NO. 7 MARQUETTE 75 >> Al-Amir Dawes had 23 points and Kadary Richmond scored 21 to lead Seton Hall over Marquette for the Pirates' third win this season over ranked teams.

NO. 8 NORTH CAROLINA 65, NO. 16 CLEMSON 55 >> R.J. Davis had 14 points while Armando Bacot had 14 points and 16 rebounds to lead North Carolina over Clemson.

NO. 10 ARIZONA 92, UTAH 73 >> Caleb Love scored 15 of his 23 points during a decisive second-half stretch, Keshad Johnson added 20 points and Arizona ran away from Utah for a win.
