It’s Beat SC Week! Tomorrow, the UCLA Bruins will face their crosstown rival USC Trojans in a game with very few implications for either team.

Given that Notre Dame is undefeated and currently ranked 3rd in the CFP rankings, the Trojans will probably need to win tomorrow in order to go bowling this season.
UCLA has a chance to stop it. Let’s look at the keys to a Bruin victory.
