When Lincoln Riley said he planned to win a championship at Southern California over the summer at the Pac-12 Media Day, many people scoffed at the notion. It turns our Riley was right, whether it was hubris or faith that led him to believe he would impact the culture and success at USC in his first year. As he predicted, the Trojans are primed at a title run after their season's 10-1 start. After USC stormed into the Rose Bowl and etched out a 48-45 win over UCLA Saturday night, they can make...

The Los Angeles Chargers are coming off their bye week and heading into Week 9 of the regular season with a 4-3 record and several key injuries to their top players. The Chargers could have used help at wide receiver or on the offensive line but were unable to strike a deal before the trade deadline on Tuesday at 1:00 PM.

In the 2022 Pac-12 Preseason Media Poll, the Utah Utes were the pick to win the Pac-12 football title. The defending Pac-12 champion Utes received 26 of the 33 first-place votes. The UCLA Bruins were picked to finish fourth in the conference and received no first-place votes. With the first half of the regular season complete, it would appear that the media got it wrong.

There is not much that seems to rattle UCLA Bruins head football coach Chip Kelly, the unflappable leader of UCLA football.

The Bruins came out flat against the Jaguars, and the crowd of 29,344 fans also seemed flat, as the Jaguars played an...

As the late great former Ohio State head coach Woody Hayes once said, "There can be no great victories in life without great adversity." For the UCLA Bruins football team, that is a quote they should embrace.

When Lincoln Riley was hired as the head football coach at USC last November, he knew what he was walking into. The Trojans football team is a blueblood football program that had won one Pac-12 conference title in the past 13 years. They were coming off a 4-8 season, which included a thrashing from their cross-town rivals, the UCLA Bruins, 62-33. One might assume that Riley would be cautiously optimistic about the prospects for the 2022 Trojans football. That would be wrong. When asked about...

When the UCLA Bruins made the surprising decision to leave with USC and head to the Big Ten Conference, a conference located in the Midwest and the Eastern part of the nation, the Bruins had to know that the decision to leave the Pac-12 Conference was not going to be a popular decision.

Last week, California Governor Gavin Newsom was asked about UCLA's impending conference swit...

With the Pac-12 conference still reeling from the shocking news that the UCLA Bruins and the USC Trojans are leaving their west coast conference home for The Big Ten Conference in 2024, the result has left the remaining ten schools scrambling to determine what to do next. Expansion is the likely answer and the most logical school to add is the San Diego State University Aztecs.
