UCLA Football vs. USC 2017: Go Joe Bruin predicts the game!

It is rivalry week! Unfortunately the annual Crosstown Showdown might be one-sided as the UCLA Football team is a step behind the USC Trojans.

Though there is always a chance for any team to get a victory in a rivalry game, looking at the path UCLA has taken, the potential result seems obvious.

The Bruins won’t be able to slow the Trojan rushing game and have to rely on offense to try and keep pace which has been the storyline all year long. Rosen out duels Darnold through the air but given his propensity for turnovers this year and the “strength” of the UCLA defense being in the secondary the Trojans opt for a light day through the air since they know the Bruins struggle defending the ground game.
