UCLA Bruins vs #20 California Golden Bears
After two straight losses, the UCLA Bruins look to right the ship as their in-state and in-system rivals come to town. Cal is having a season no one expected as they are starting 5-1 and only one of three Pac-12 teams ranked in the Top 25. UCLA dropped out of the polls last week after a brutal loss to Stanford and needs to get a win. With both teams looking to stay alive in their respective divisions, this should be one hell of a Thursday night game.
