Carcast: USC vs. Providence Postgame Reaction

Reign of Troy Radio returns with a Carcast episode following USC's 75-71 win over Providence in the NCAA Tournament.

Here's what's on tap in this USC podcast:

• The Trojans kicked off their NCAA Tournament run on Wednesday night with a comeback victory against Providence. After falling down by as many as 17 points, USC used a surprisingly heroic performance from Nick Rakocevic to set the tone in the second half, while Jordan McLaughlin, Bennie Boatwright and Chemezie Metu combined for 57 total points. What led to the turnaround and how big was it that the Trojans proved the can win? Michael and Alicia give their reactions to the game and break it all down.
• With a victory over PC, the Trojans now much prepare themselves for No. 6 seed SMU, who have played to a 30-4 record this season. USC beat them back in November, but the Mustangs have won 26 of their last 27 games and waltzed to the American Athletic Conference crown. Can Andy Enfield's team beat them for a second time or will Semi Ojeleye and company get revenge? The RoT Crew chats up Friday afternoon's game and makes predictions.
