The UCLA Bruins and USC Trojans will end their longtime rivalry in the PAC-12, as both teams will be added to the Big Ten. Though both teams have fizzled out of the College Football Playoffs, bragging rights can still be had. 

It should be an interesting matchup between the Bruins and Trojans, simply based on the stellar defense that the Bruins have boasted all season—and Caleb Williams' offense. 

Though the rumors are that Kelly won't be asked back for another season, he can go out swinging, which would mean stopping Williams the crosstown rival Trojans. Kelly plans to do that with a plan of patience. 

Chip Kelly initially reveals his adoration for Caleb Williams, and his ability to escape the pocket and still make plays. That is where the Bruins will need to take their time. 

Kelly reveals the team will need to be patient in their approach to getting after Williams, as he is an expert in making expert "non-scheduled plays." This is certainly true, as Williams is known to escape the pocket and still gun the ball down the field. 

The good news is that Willaims also is prone to holding the ball for too long, and the Bruins have a defense that can chase him down. 

The Bruins have nothing left to play for except pride. Securing a win tomorrow against the Trojans would be the perfect cap to the season and this long-time rivalry. The Bruins and Trojans will meet in the Big Ten next year, but UCLA can have bragging rights as the team that won in their final bout in the PAC-12.
