UCLA football is 3-5 overall, 2-4 in Big Ten play, on the season. Its first win came against Hawai’i back in August, and after a five-game skid, the team notched consecutive victories on the road against Rutgers and Nebraska.
What all that means is that tonight’s affair could be the Bruins’ chance to claim their first victory on home turf. And what’s more – it could be in front of a rowdy crowd of parents and students alike.
“We do well on the road,” said coach DeShaun Foster. “So I’m trying to figure out how we can do the same thing at the Rose Bowl.”
Kickoff is set for 6 p.m., but until then, have a read of Noah Massey’s comprehensive preview so you have what you need for the clash.
