Key Storylines and Matchup Notes for USC and UCLA

• The Trojans have yet to defeat the Bruins at home during the Lincoln Riley era, but they enter this year’s matchup as heavy favorites to break that trend and extend their winning streak over UCLA to two.

• The Bruins dismissed head coach DeShaun Foster midway through the season, and although the team has shown some improvement since the change, UCLA remains stuck at three wins and has no path to bowl eligibility.

• This game will also serve as Senior Day for a number of Trojans players. It will be worth noting which non-seniors choose to participate in the ceremony as well, as that often signals plans to declare for the NFL Draft.
