LOS ANGELES -- Chase Garbers threw a touchdown pass and ran for another score, and California snapped its 14-game losing streak against Southern California with a 15-14 victory Saturday night.
Vic Wharton III made his first TD reception of the season as the Golden Bears (6-4, 3-4 Pac-12) rallied from a 14-point halftime deficit and secured bowl eligibility for just the second time in seven seasons with their first win at the Coliseum in 18 years.
Cal did all of its scoring in an eight-minute span of the third quarter, starting with a safety when a shotgun snap by USC (5-5, 4-4) went 22 yards backward into the end zone.
