This week on the LA Times college football roundtable, host Ryan Ki, along with UCLA beat writer Ben Bulch, discuss the weekend's major highlights. Notably, USC achieved a significant bounce-back with a 42-2 victory over Rutgers, a team struggling with form. Although this victory doesn't completely redirect USC's season, it bolstered the team's confidence after recent setbacks. During the game, a key moment occurred in the third quarter where Rutgers briefly closed the gap, but USC's talented sophomore receiver, Maai Lemon, turned the tide with a remarkable 70-yard touchdown reception, showcasing his potential as the emerging top receiver for the team. On the flip side, UCLA came off a bye week, regaining morale, and faces a tough match against Nebraska. The attention is on the UCLA program's rejuvenated energy despite potential challenges. With insightful remarks from Coach DeShaun Foster and the anticipation of a well-matched game against Nebraska, both teams are preparing diligently for their next moves in a highly charged college football atmosphere. The discussion also touches on the vibrant and supportive fan environment at Nebraska, highlighting the close-knit college football communities throughout the season.
