UCLA Football 2015 Schedule Preview: California Golden Bears

No one would argue that UCLA‘s biggest rival is the private school across town. But there is a growing sense that the Cal Golden Bears have emerged above the likes of Stanford and the Arizona schools to be UCLA Football’s secondary rival. Unlike with USC, the UCLA-Cal relationship isn’t one of hatred so much as sibling rivalry.

Even through the down seasons since those dominant Aaron Rodgers and Marshawn Lynch teams, Cal has continued to trade blows with UCLA. The series is tied 4-4 since 2006, and the Golden Bears are looking for a bounce-back year and hoping to fight their way to the top half of a thin Pac-12 North Division.
