USC clinched a berth in postseason play after securing their sixth win against their rival the UCLA Bruins. The Trojans qualified for the Las Vegas Bowl and beat the Texas A&M Aggies. 

Lincoln Riley’s best season in Los Angeles to this point was his first back in 2022. USC went 11-1 in the regular season and were one win away from winning the Pac-12 and making it into the College Football playoff. Quarterback Caleb Williams won the Heisman trophy and the Trojans rebuild was well ahead of schedule. Flash forward to 2025 and USC has won a combined 13 games in 2 seasons. Will they flip this trend?
