A top-10 matchup between crosstown rivals in Los Angeles headlines the women's college basketball schedule for Thursday.

No. 1 UCLA (23-0 overall, 11-0 in Big Ten) and national player of the year frontrunner Lauren Betts travel to take on No. 6 USC (21-2, 11-1) and star guard JuJu Watkins on Thursday at 10 p.m. ET. The Bruins currently hold half-game lead for first place in the Big Ten standings.

UCLA is one of the hottest teams in the country, as the 23-0 Bruins are the lone undefeated team in Division I women's basketball. Betts ranks second in the Big Ten in scoring at 19.6 points per game. Conversely, a win on Thursday would improve the Trojans' record to 4-1 over top-10 opponents this season, with their lone loss coming to then-No. 6 Notre Dame on Nov. 23, 2024.

After sustaining a setback at Iowa two weeks ago, USC has put together back-to-back wins against Wisconsin and No. 8 Ohio State. Watkins enters Thursday's heavyweight matchup ranked fifth in the country in scoring at 23.9 points per game.

The Trojans and Bruins' contest will be streamed exclusively on Peacock, NBC's streaming platform that requires a subscription to access. Here's how to watch the USC vs. UCLA women's basketball game on Thursday, including start time information and more:
