Has there ever been .1 year in
which UCLA’s game with
( ross-town rival Southern Cali
fornia meant so little?
Six times in the 1980's, the
IJSC-UCLA game had Rose
Bowl implications, but this
year, the game’s meaning
doesn’t go beyond the rivalry
The Trojans. (>-0 in confer
ence play and 8 2 overall
clinched their third consecu
tive Rose Howl appearance
with last week’s 24-2 rout of
Arizona.
IJCLA has struggled this sea
son like no Bruin team in re
cent memory and boasts a t 7
record after last week’s loss to
Oregon. With a loss this week
UCLA would finish with its
worst record siitie 1971 when
it finished 2-7 I
It is tempting to pic k the Tro
jans by a big margin, but the
ia< t remains that the Bruins
have played their toughest
competition close most of this
season Only in the Arizona
game (and arguably against
Tennessee) were the Bruins
blown out. and they played
Michigan tough before losing
24-22.
Still, the Trojans .ire by far
the better team. They have a
whole lot more to lose than the
Bruins It u ill be 1 lose, but the
