For the second year running, the Victory Bell and bragging rights in Los Angeles will stay in University Park just off the 10 Freeway, as USC rolled to an easy 36-14 victory over UCLA on a cool Saturday evening in Pasadena.
This is Jim Mora’s second consecutive loss to the red half of Los Angeles after winning his first three matchups. Clay Helton is now 2-0 as head coach of USC against the Bruins.
Saturday proved that the chasm between UCLA and USC is growing bigger and faster than the Metro expansion projects, and similarly to how there’s no rail line that goes to Westwood yet, the Bruins are getting left further and further behind.
