UCLA lost 34–28 to Arizona, who entered the game as 19+12-point underdogs. The Bruins surrendered 436 total yards and 6.7 yards per play to the Wildcats.[7] UCLA had a chance to comeback on the final play of the game on 4th-and-10 from the Arizona 29-yard line. A scrambling Thompson-Robinson threw under pressure to an open Jake Bobo, who dove but was unable to catch the ball in the end zone.[7][8]

UCLA played without running back-receiver Kazmeir Allen, who was out due to injury. Their streak of nine consecutive wins against unranked teams ended, while Arizona halted their eight-game road losing streak against ranked teams.[8]

UCLA was eliminated from conference championship contention after losing 48–45 to No. 7 USC. The Trojans gained 649 yards, the most the Bruins have allowed since giving up 720 yards to Washington State in 2019.[9] USC quarterback Caleb Williams had 503 yards of total offense, passing for 470 yards and two touchdowns and rushing for another.[10] Thompson-Robinson threw for four touchdowns and also ran for two others, but he committed four turnovers, with the last of his three interceptions ending the game.[9]

UCLA jumped ahead 14–0 in the game, and held a 21–20 lead at halftime. The teams exchanged touchdowns in the second half, ending the game with a combined 93 points, five turnovers and over 1,000 yards on offense.[11] It was the first game in the history of their crosstown rivalry that both teams started Black quarterbacks.[10] It was the first time that both teams were ranked entering the matchup since 2014.[12]
