Shaq Evans S. Everything has changed in Los Angeles this season: UCLA entered this showdown with a higher ranking and more victories than USC for the first time in a decade, and the Bruins backed it up.

Barkley passed for yards and three touchdowns, but threw two interceptions in the Trojans' third loss in four games. USC was the preseason's No. We're too talented to have that many losses. While Hundley led UCLA with the same preternatural calm he has shown all year, Barkley threw an interception on the game's first play and rarely looked comfortable. Barkley was hammered on the blind-side sack by Barr with to play, spending a long moment on the Rose Bowl turf before walking off gingerly and watching USC's final drive from the sideline.

Marqise Lee had nine catches for yards, and All-American Robert Woods had five catches for 68 yards. Other people, they'll be sad. But to me, we came out against a great team and had too many turnovers. Franklin and Joseph Fauria scored while UCLA jumped out to an early lead under a morning mist that turned into serious rain by halftime at the Rose Bowl.

USC trimmed its huge early deficit to on George Uko 's fumble recovery in the end zone in the third quarter. The Trojans pulled within with Lee's yard TD catch and a 2-point conversion with to play. But Hundley and the Bruins coolly mounted an yard drive, converting a long third down before Franklin -- UCLA's career rushing leader, nicknamed "Jet Ski" -- sped across the watery turf for the clinching score. After Aaron Hester intercepted Barkley's first pass into double coverage, Hundley scored on a 1-yard keeper just 81 seconds in to give UCLA its first lead in the rivalry game since The interception was Barkley's 14th of the season, doubling his total as a junior and matching his mark as a mediocre freshman in Franklin then made a yard TD run up the middle in the second quarter.

A significant rain began to fall at halftime, and it immediately bothered the Bruins on a wacky play during their opening drive. Hundley and Franklin both fumbled before two diving linemen knocked the ball into the end zone, where Uko fell on it. The teams both wore their home jerseys on the verdant Rose Bowl turf in a return to the distinctive tradition that was revived a few years ago. UCLA abandoned the tradition last year, inexplicably choosing its rivalry game to debut an all-white ensemble that hasn't been seen since its point thrashing.
