While the focus remains on Saturday's football match-up between the rivals, for the past five days, it has been UCLA's other athletes who have made a name for themselves, competing against USC in various sports.
From ice hockey to lacrosse and from flag football to rugby, students across campus have gotten in on the action and have brought a whole new meaning to the schools' rivalry.
"Our goal is to not only get everyone excited for the game but to unite the campus and make everyone feel like they're a part of the tradition," Gitanjalie Misra of the Student Alumni Association said.
Throughout the past week, the UCLA Recreation Department has worked together with the Student Alumni Association to host a series of athletic events pitting the two schools against each other.
