Maybe a year without a bowl game was not such a bad idea for USC and UCLA. There was little the Bruins and Trojans were released Saturday night at the Rose Bowl to shout "bis". But what he did for an evening of derailment say, was the pecking order in the city.
But what he did for an evening of skating say, was the pecking order in the city. USC, as she has done 11 times over the last 12 meetings, spend the year on the job in Los Angeles after a 28-14 victory over UCLA.
Allen Bradford finished his career as a Trojan to keep a career night, scoring the Trojans last two touchdowns for the "Victory Bell" in South Los Angeles.
Bradford did throw 212 meters, including a touchdown 73-yard run with 3 minutes 31 seconds and received a pass play of 47 yards on which it is to give most of the work USC 21-7 lead with 11:17 left.
It was a triumphant end to a career that never seemed to hit at full speed.
"It's a great way to finish," said Bradford. "Even when times were tough, I just continue. Every stone thrown in the way of a springboard."
A game that was plagued by mistakes have been at USC quarterback Matt Barkley was just a short pass over UCLA Owamagbe Odighizuwa and Akeem Ayers. Bradford took the ball in the backfield, ran a UCLA defender and sprint to the touchline to USC by two touchdowns.
said: "It was a long season and has been a long season-cons," coach Lane Kiffin USC. "Did [the fans] is a lot of things that had nothing to do with their departure. At the end of this way of course for our fans and this city."
The Bruins (4-8 overall, 2-7 in the game Pacific 10 Conference) had nowhere to go, after he was removed to a dispute Bowl for the second time in three seasons under the leadership of Rick Neuheisel.
The Trojans (8-5, 5-4) were disqualified for a bowl bid even before the season started as a NCAA bowl handed a ban of two years during the appeal process.
That left the final match on Saturday for both teams, with the Trojans ended a sequence of two defeats and get the moment of well-being at the end.
"It helps," said Kiffin. "It's always disappointing. If you look back, there were so many games we have so many games that were only given should have won."
The possibility of major changes on the coaching staff at UCLA, not Neuheisel, who was overthrown repeatedly stated that "evaluate" things when the season ends, either to learn about the "gun" offense, offensive coordinator Norm Chow or requested defensive coordinator Chuck Bullough.
"For me, playing, I could have done better, he was not coaching," linebacker Akeem Ayers said. "I was missing an attack or a mental error. It was for us players. "
It was again Saturday.
The Bruins turned the ball over three times higher. In addition, a possible scoring drive highlighted in the second quarter.
UCLA had moved inside the line of the USC 20-yard drive on the hard to beat, but Harris was called for holding and tight end Cory Harkey punished in the next game a false start . Two plays later, Johnathan Franklin went to the line and was stripped of the ball.
Malcolm Smith picked it up and sprinted 68 yards for a 14-7 lead with 2:31 left USC in half.
Chow said errors cost the Bruins in this order at the end of first semester. "In the first half we played OK. In the second half we had the ball a few times and not make something happen."
