Eric Kendricks after win over USC: We run LA
UCLA senior linebacker Eric Kendricks had a message for the people of Los Angeles after the Bruins beat the Trojans 38-20 at the Rose Bowl on Saturday for their third straight win in the rivalry.
WE RUN LA
3 IN A ROW

In Kendrick’s freshman year, the team got waxed by USC 50-0, leading the Bruins to fire Rick Neuheisel and hire Jim Mora, which is looking like one of the athletic program’s best moves. Based on the turnaround, it’s pretty darn easy to see why he was so fired up to send the tweet. Plus, he also had an interception in the game.
If you look at the three-year winning streak UCLA has in the rivalry, Kendricks is right. If you look at the 12 of 13 previous games USC won, he’s quite wrong. But for the moment, there is no dispute about which school has the better football team in LA.
