BEST OF THE REST
This weekend’s other top conference games (all times PST)
STANFORD (6-4, 4-3) AT UCLA (3-8, 3-5) When: 12 p.m. Saturday
Where: Rose Bowl, Pasadena, Calif. TV: Pac-12 Network
Notes: After a rough first season with the Bruins, Chip Kelly could head into the offseason with some momentum if he can follow up a win over rival USC by wrapping up the season with a victory over Stanford. The Cardinal had an extra week of rest to prepare for UCLA when Saturday’s game against California was postponed.
ARIZONA STATE (6-5, 4-4) AT ARIZONA (5-6, 4-4) When: 12:30 p.m. Saturday
Where: Arizona Stadium, Tucson, Ariz.
TV: FS1
Notes: Arizona State will need to avoid a letdown after its 31-29 loss at Oregon on Saturday ended any hope of winning the South Division. The Wildcats need a home win over their rival to continue its season with a bowl game. The winner is likely headed to the Las Vegas Bowl.
NO. 3 NOTRE DAME (11-0) AT USC (5-6, 4-5) When: 5 p.m. Saturday
Where: L.A. Memorial Coliseum, Los Angeles.
TV: ABC.
Notes: The Fighting Irish can wrap up an undefeated regular season that would seem to clinch a spot in the College Football Playoff. USC, which was picked to win the South Division, will finish tied for third at 4-5 and needs to beat Notre Dame to finish 6-6 and qualify for a bowl game.
