Saturday's Week 11 clash between UCLA and USC at the LA Coliseum marks the end of an era for this distinguished crosstown rivalry, but it's not the way each set of fans would have wanted to bow out of Pac-12. Neither team is ranked in either the AP Poll or the USA Today Coaches Poll, which means the only prizes at stake are the Victory Bell and local bragging rights. In a way, there's a certain romance to that.

Next year, the Bruins vs Trojans will take up a new home in the Big Ten, a move that lends this fixture additional significance not just in the short-term, but for all time. Though USC owns this rivalry, boasting a lopsided 50-33-7 record, UCLA is framing this showdown as winner takes all.
A month ago, USC were 6-0 and on course to build on last season's successes. However, they've since lost four of five, and Lincoln Riley has shifted from hero to villain in double-quick time. The Trojans' reigning Heisman Trophy-winning QB Caleb Williams will be desperate to bow out on a high in what's likely to be his final appearance for the team, and he'll be looking to hit Tahj Washington at every opportunity.
The UCLA defense, however, is a menace to signal-callers, and has racked up 36 sacks this season. If they manage to keep Williams in check, they have a chance, as running back Carson Steele could have a field day against a rushing defense that's allowed a staggering 182.3 rushing yards per game.
At the time of publication, USC are -6.5 point favorites according to DraftKings, but games as emotionally charged as this don't often go as planned.
You’ll need to watch a UCLA vs USC live stream to see how the game plays out, and we’ve got all the details you need down below.
