After the worst beatdown by a team in USC football history, the Trojans should not be taken lightly. History favors the team beat down the previous year. A cursory examination of the schedule indicates they have not really been spectacular, but they have won the games they needed to. The winner of this game likely advances to the Pac-12 championship game according to the new rules. This is also the Bruins and Trojans final meeting as Pac-12 conference members, barring some political grandstanding by the State of California.


QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson threw 2 touchdowns each to WR Kyle Philips and RB Kazmeir Allen (who also had a 100-yard kickoff return) and Thompson-Robinson ran for another 2 scores as visiting UCLA walloped+ USC, 62-33, in front of 68,152 fans in the Coliseum and a FOX audience.

It was the most points scored by UCLA in the series and tied for the most points ever scored against USC. It was also UCLA’s largest winning margin against USC since 1954. The combined 95 points were the most in series history. It was just the second win in the Coliseum by UCLA since 1999.

UCLA piled up 609 total yards, the most allowed by USC since Arizona State’s 612 in 2013.
