Even though our season has been mired in frustration and unfulfilled high expectations once again I think we all look to this game for some degree of inspiration. Here’s hoping Coach N can...
If these two teams ever face one another, I want to be right there watching it -- this is assuming Kitten lasts long at $C. Check out this story on yahoo/rivals.com. Man do they loathe him. ...
Bumped. GO BRUINS. -N If you read the LA papers today, you'll essentially see how the LA (Trojan) Times covers UCLA football, as opposed to others. The LAT has the basic story and one absurd...
If you haven't seen this video of the 1997 UCLA-$C game, here is another shot: All I have to say is AMAZING. An amazing and spirited Cade McNown who dominated the game, easily averting 4-5 sacks...
Reasons why UCLA can prevail over Southern Cal in the annual rivalry game
Heard that?? Listen carefully. That THUD (!) you just heard is the impact heard across the Pac-10 today. U$C just hit the turf, and they hit it HARD. That sound is called parity, as in...
Blogger on Bruins Nation talks about need for culture change in UCLA football, despite youth and inexperience.
This is a slight reiteration of UCLA 13_USC 9's post ('Past, Present, Future: A Quick Outline' )yesterday (5 Oct.) Great points, all of them. But I'm going to add a few here, and in the...
Looking at the silver lining following the injury to UCLA's starting quarterback Kevin Prince.
A blogger from Bruins Nation urges UCLA to fans to keep the season in perspective following a huge victory in Knoxville against Tennessee.
Why so obvious? 1- Not just head coaching experience, but SUCCESSFUL head coaching experience -- both at the college and pro levels.2- He's young and EXPERIENCED, (as opposed to what Dorrell was...
That's right, START OSAAR RASSHAN at QB this Saturday...!Already, Dorrell is proving our point, that he simply is not a good coach and that he should be gone come Monday, 3 December.He's about to...
We have to Beat SC next week, not to prove we can beat them because of Dorrell, but IN SPITE of Dorrell.Clearly, this season has been wasted (even if we do make it to the Rose Bowl, because our...

Many of you have already said it this evening: 'wish this was the last game of the season'... to think we still have another month of this charade called Bruin football. What a joke!I made an...
This was Kurt Streeter's (LA TIMES) take on Cowan.I FULLY concur.... Steering the Bruins was Patrick Cowan. He came into this season on the second string but first among Bruins fans because of the...
Didn't get a chance to read all the posts this weekend, but will do so today...In case no one mentioned Bob Keisser's take on UCLA appearing in the LB Press-Telegram on Saturday, here goes. A s...
I seriously am almost hoping we lose every remaining game this season so as to ensure Dorrell's firing.How horrible is that? Dorrell for some godawful reason has managed to maintain his staying...
I've posed this question before... why are we not ARMED at the Quarterback position??We are supposed to be a top-football program... and now we're resorting to guys who have been out of football...
I had to go in search of something to hold onto in this ugly 'hour of need' after this most horrendous of losses:I found the following... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LT6KiQO3C8Qyeah, it's ok to...
We're five years into this nightmare... please wake me up, somebody, please...A part of me feels bad for Dorrell, because I've no doubt he's a nice guy, but nice guys don't necessarily deserve head...
In today's LA Times, there's a nice feature on LB Christian Taylor, his influence on the team, his impact, etc.What struck me was the apparent lack of respect shown by the BYU players toward the...
Ok, so we're 2-0, we're # 11 in the country, we've won 12 of 13 home games (or something like that, though clearly nowhere even close to $C's streak at home in the last SIX years)... hmmm... what...
