It is Rivalry Week across college football, but not for USC. Last week’s game against rival UCLA was one to forget, and a season to forget will be one step closer to coming to an end Saturday against Brigham Young.

Last week’s 62-33 loss at the hands of the Bruins was yet another black mark on the season. The only win in the last five games for the Trojans came against lowly Arizona, and even that victory was a struggle. A loss here would eliminate USC from making a bowl game. At 4-6, the Trojans need to win both of its last two games to become bowl eligible.

With the Trojans listed as a 6.5-point underdog at home, an upset will be needed to have any hope.

Not enough has been said about the job coach Kalani Sitake is doing in Provo. BYU is 21-3 over the last two seasons, the most wins in a two-year span since 2008-09. A win herewould give BYU back-to-back 11-win seasons for the first time since 2006-07. The Cougars are already 4-0 against the Pac-12 this season.
