Agreed. I would much rather face USC than UCLA.
USC has all those WR's who will catch anything thrown in their general direction. However against UCLA I don't think we can both defend the pass and stop DTR from running. He's a classic Chip Kelly QB.
Watching USC vs. UCLA last night, I thought UCLA looked like the better team for most of the game. For those of you who missed it, UCLA was up by 18 at one point but USC came back in the 4th quarter. UCLA drove down the field but got stopped a couple of yards shy of the last first down they needed to run out the clock, so they kicked a field goal with 52 seconds left. The ensuing kickoff to USC was short, and USC returned it across midfield. Another pass took USC down to the 7 yard line, and the next pass was into the end zone with 16 seconds left to win the game.
