UCLA vs USC
Definition
A legendary college sports rivalry between the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) Bruins and the University of Southern California (USC) Trojans, most famously in American football but extending to other sports.
The annual 'Battle for Los Angeles,' a crosstown clash that turns neighbors into rivals and divides the city with blue-and-gold vs. cardinal-and-gold passion.
Slang shorthand for the heated athletic showdowns between these two elite Pac-12 (now Big Ten) powerhouses, often deciding conference supremacy.
