Not a lot going on this final game of the regular season. Not even a rivalry spot.
Cal has clinched a bowl spot so not much reason to go full out and even when they do it is not very pretty to watch.
UCLA cannot qualify for a bowl game. They had their chance to make it interesting the PAC 12 South but they are not ready for that yet.
Cal Bears
Cal clinched its bowl eligibility with a win over Stanford last week. It was hardly riveting though, a 24-20 game in Palo Alto.

They finish the season with a second road game and that is never a good spot. Not huge travel but the fatigue builds up over time.
Even when they win it is a struggle for Cal to score points. Amazingly they have a winning record even though they are averaging 19ppg.
The defense fell from being elite early to just being very good this season. 22.5ppg allowed would have yielded a much better record if they had not had so much injury and ineffectiveness at the quarterback position.
It is hard to know what kind of effort we get here, especially from the defense which leads the team.
UCLA Bruins
A couple of weeks ago the Bruins could have run the table and claimed supremacy in the PAC 12 South. It was a longshot but a mathematically possible scenario.

It was no surprise that they were walloped by both Utah and USC, giving up more than 100 points in the back to back losses.
QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson is questionable for this one and that is not going to help a UCLA offense that is not loaded like Chip Kelly’s old Oregon teams.
The defense has been downright awful giving up an average of 35ppg. It will be interesting to see if that is something that the Bears can actually take advantage of. There has got to be a meeting in the middle at some point.

Free Week 14 NCAA Football Pick
It is hard to know the mindset of either of these teams. Does UCLA actually want to show up to close the season? Does Cal play it safe?
4* Free NCAA Betting Pick: Cal +1
The lone certainty seems to be the Cal defense. If that group comes to play and does so for a whole game the Bears should have this one.
Coach Wilcox could be reminding the Bears that a win would tie last year’s mark and give them a chance to show more progress in December. Motivation is key in the final week.
