However, if Stan ford can’t get its offense out of the doldrums that has led to three straight losses — including a 36-11 drubbing by Washington State last week — this one will be a no-brainer. Statistics don’t lie in Stanford’s case, exemplified by the Pac-lO’s ninth-best scoring offense and the conference’s worst scoring defense. That’s a bad combination. This is Stanford’s homecoming game, though, so expect nothing to be ordinary. UCLA (4-2, 1-1) at Cali fornia (4-3, 1 -2) 4 p.m., TBS UCLA leads this magnificent Cali fornia rivalry, 46-25-1, and has won five of the last seven games against the Golden Bears. But California, with a new coach and a reinvented quarterback, is no longer a pushover. After winning just their final game of last season, the Bears have be come the surprise of the Pac-10 in 2002. Senior Kyle Boiler has led the charge, throwing 18 touchdown passes and just five interceptions this season. In a 30-28 loss to USC last week, Boiler threw for two touchdowns, tying him with Pat Barnes for the all-time California touchdown pass record of 54. Head coach Jeff Tedford has led the Cal offense to golden territory, outscoring opponents 163-55 in the first half and 90-26 in the first quarter. It is a group that is the top scoring unit in the Pac-10 this season and features the best rushing attack in Mark McCambridge Emerald Tyler Ebell hopes to extend his impressive season against California in Berkeley. the conference. Against UCLA’s seventh-ranked defense, the Bears will have an ex cellent opportunity to come away with their fifth win of the season. But the Bruins will be tough, not just because the game is televised nationally, but because last week’s heartbreaking loss to Oregon is still on the minds of UCLA players and coaches. “The coaches were upset,” UCLA head coach Bob Toledo told the Dai ly Bruin. “The players were upset. The fans were upset. “Obviously when you lose a game, you’re open to criticism. I understand that. That goes with the territory. We made some costly mistakes.” Those mistakes — which ranged from a fake field goal on 4th-and-17 to a blocked extra point that would have eventually led to a tie game — have been magnified because of Toledo’s knack for panache in his of fensive system. That panache has led to the Pac-lO’s third-best of fense, but also the third-worst red zone offense. Couple that with a kicking game that is just 7-of-13 this season, and there is a volatile situation just wait ing to be unleashed at UCLA. Cali fornia’s homecoming could be a tough one for the Bruins. Contact the sports reporter at hankhager@dailyemerald.com. Week continued from page 10B saying really nice things about you, and second you can’t buy it when they’re telling you that you’re worthless. The level of venom did not surprise me. The only thing that disappointed me was when they misspelled my name.” For the Trojans, the resurgence of senior quarterback Carson Palmer has led the way to a resurgence of their own. After suffering through three sea sons and a redshirt year, Palmer has shown the maturity required of a successful quarterback in the Pac-10. He is third in the conference in passing yards per game at 272.2 and is fourth in total offense at 257.8 yards per game. “I think Carson Palmer is a gifted player,” Neuheisel said. “I think it has been well-documented that I re cruited him. Unfortunately, too well-documented. ” Yet it is running back Sultan Mc Cullough who may be the key ingre dient to the USC offense. The senior has helped revive the Trojan offense and is beginning to cull thoughts of days when USC was known as “Tail IMP back U” for all the success it once had running the ball. McCullough carried the ball 39 times for a career-high 176 yards in USC’s win over California. “Somebody’s got to carry the load,” McCullough said after the game. “It was me, and I’m grateful. I got tired, but the coaches had been saying all week, ‘Finish, finish, fin ish.’ And that’s what I had to do.” Look for a shoot-out in Southern California as two potent offenses go to war.
