Five things to watch: No. 22 UCLA at USC

Five things to know headed into Saturday's game between No. 22 UCLA and USC at Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum:

1. Championship at stake: Not that there needs to be anything tangible to play for to make UCLA-USC an important game, but with the Pac-12 South division title on the line, there’s an added level of intrigue. For the winner, a trip to the Rose Bowl is still in play. For the loser, how does Vegas sound? The difference might not end up that drastic, but that this game could have those kind of ramifications makes it the most important in the series since the conference expanded to 12 teams in 2011.
