These teams both enter at 5-6 in what is likely a Bowl game play-in, so the winner will continue on while the loser will go home and pack it in for the season. While Josh Rosen won the QB battle vs. Sam Darnold and USC last week, they lost the game 28-23, but gave the Trojans everything they had. UCLA can't stop the run, so expect the Bears to do plenty of that. But I like Rosen closing out his career and the Bruins' aerial game as the passing yards simply add up faster, and it will be tough for Cal to match scores. Home favorites trying to become Bowl eligible in their finale that are 5-6 cover 58.8% of the time and 61.8% of the time if they are off a loss. Play on UCLA.
