What you need to know

California: Cal led Oregon 10-7 until late in the second quarter last week before the Ducks went into overdrive, dropping the Bears to a fourth straight loss. Now just 1-4 in Pac-12 games, California hasn't scored more than 24 points in a game in the last month.

No. 9 USC: Just one point keeps the Trojans from being undefeated after a close loss at Utah two weeks ago, but they recovered last week by taking down Arizona. USC has scored over 40 points in all but two games this season behind an agile offensive attack led by quarterback Caleb Williams, who has 24 touchdown passes on the season with just one interception.
