The no. 16 USC basketball team suffered a 70-60 upset by UC Irvine, marking their first loss of the season. USC played without Boogie Ellis and Kobe Johnson, and struggled, with freshman Isaiah Collier carrying the team. UC Irvine's Justin Hohn scored 25 points in the game, securing a ranked win for the team. The upset was attributed to USC's shorthanded lineup and a challenging week of practice.
Boogie Ellis and Kobe Johnson were out. Isaiah Collier was ailing. As a result, the shorthanded Trojans had “probably the worst week” of practice in years, followed by a dismaying upset by Irvine on Tuesday (from @thucnhi21) https://t.co/YCOQkPiZjr

Some really ugly possessions from USC down the stretch and they lose their first game of the season to UC Irvine. Asking a freshman -- even Isaiah Collier -- to carry the team feels like not a great recipe for success
