On Sunday, the bracket was announced for the 2025 NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament. For the fourth consecutive year, USC made the field, as the No. 9 seed Trojans will face No. 8 seed Clemson in the first round.
Later that evening, we learned the tipoff times and television information for the first round tournament games. USC’s matchup with Clemson will tip off at 12:30 p.m. Pacific time/3:30 p.m. Eastern time on Saturday. The game will air on ESPN2.

For the Trojans, it will mark an opportunity to showcase themselves for the country on national television. USC played several high-profile games on network TV early in the season, including nonconference matchups with South Carolina and UConn. However, the majority of the Trojans’ conference games aired on either Big Ten Network, Big Ten Plus, or Peacock, meaning that this will likely be the first time in a while that many national fans actually watch them play.
The winner of the USC-Clemson game will advance to a likely second round matchup with No. 1 seed and host South Carolina. That game will be played next Monday, with tipoff time and television information to be announced following Saturday’s action.
