Well, folks, it’s time to sign off.
The Rose Bowl is completely vacated. Bruin fans embarked on a hour-long journey back to Westwood – I can’t imagine those rides were much fun after tonight’s 19-13 crushing loss.

A well-kept secret eerily trots around Westwood – a whisper in the wind.
J.Michael Sturdivant often seems positioned in the spaces between plays, where defenders count their blessings he wasn’t called upon, and his potential roams untapped.
But the secret spilled Saturday night.
USC’s leading running back – and the team’s X-factor – Woody Marks looks to be on the ground.
Redshirt senior defensive back K.J. Wallace manages a perfectly timed blitz that brings Marks down, and should he stay down, it’ll be a big loss for the Trojans.
UCLA and USC enter halftime with the Trojans up 9-3, but there was some heavy taunting from both sides on their way off the field as a barrage of UCLA players pressed up to departing Trojans, getting awfully close to the USC tunnel.
Redshirt junior J.Michael Sturdivant was UCLA’s most praised wide receiver before this season, expected to lead the Bruins in receptions.
Blatantly, he hasn’t. He’s been underused for how talented he is, and we haven’t seen much of him in recent games.
USC quarterback Jayden Maiava looks to be getting a few too many seconds in the pocket. UCLA seems to need more pressure on the signal-caller – who is making just his second-ever collegiate start – from linebackers such as Kain Medrano and Carson Schwesinger.
