The Battle for Los Angeles has the most national attention amid a fantastic lineup of league games on Saturday, with USC’s College Football Playoff hopes hanging in the balance at the Rose Bowl.

Great matchups and a rivalry or 2 (one of them personal) highlight a stacked Saturday slate of games in the Pac-12.

On today’s episode of Locked On Pac-12, I go through every game in the Pac-12 this weekend with keys and predictions.

Arizona has to win its final two games to reach a bowl after going 1-11 last year.

What’s the biggest key against a red-hot Washington State team?

The Big Game is one of my Pac-12 Prime Picks this week, with the Bears looking to win two straight over the Cardinal for the first time since 2008-09.

I also go through the biggest questions for each team in the rest of the games which includes a major injury watch in the Oregon-Utah matchup.
