PrintWashington St. Cougars at UCLA Bruins, Oct 4, 2008 7:15 PM PDT
Off we go.
Bruins need a win … badly. As do the Cougars who are coming into the Rose Bowl looking at UCLA as perhaps their only chance at a victory in their long season. Our recent history against the Cougars have been nothing short of nightmarish. As we have discussed all week, Paul Wulff’s team will have a shot in pulling off what some will consider as an upset against the Bruins.
Bruins will need to come out with aggression on both sides of the ball with stellar play from the special teams:

They will also need to stay focused and disciplined, eliminating the mistakes from previous weeks
The kickoff time is scheduled for 7:15 pm PST on FSN Prime Ticket. As always you can click on the links below under "Related Item" for updated game stats and track the game via UCLA's official site and WWL's game page.
Let’s hope the boys in blue can put it all together. With that said time to get started with another game thread filled with our passion buckets.
Fire away.
GO BRUINS.

Only wish I had the game on TV here….am switching back & forth between Ohio St. and Wisconny and Mizzou-Nebraska.
Guess Ty Willingham’s days in Seattle are numbered for sure now, huh?

I'm getting the game on a Fox Prime station. Can you get that?
Also, have they said anything about the Wisconsin Band? I’m really upset by the fact they continue their horrible behavior.

I Wish
I’m checking the Cable TV guide right now but the FSN station up here is carrying Texas and CU.

Pre-Game -- James Washington
D backs C- for season.
Tackling “horrible”.
Agree with that. But, “this is a must game for CRN”? No, he gets time to build this program. We MUST play to our abilities, with passion, and full effort. That’s what we must do. But, “must game”, no such thing this year.

3 and 4 incomplete pass
They are playing a 3rd string QB, too. But he has already been a Pac 10 player of the week.
sjh
wha?!
On my sports package subscription on directv, all the other regional FSNs had the game starting at 930 CST, but little did I know that Prime Ticket had is starting at 9:15…dang. What have I missed in the last 15 minutes?
This is a good example of the fallacy that the D gives up yards because of poor O
Our O runs off time on a 6 play drive. A fresh, brand new D gives up a long drive.
sjh
There might also be a shortage of posters because the Dodgers are also playing (GO BLUE!! UP 2-0!!)

CRN Interviewed as walked off field
Likes the D — flying aroudn the field. Goal, get them off the field on 3rd downs. They are 2 for 8. Good job.
On O — says we need to establish running game but that WSU is selling out to stop run. Says they will go back to locker room to figure out how to break them down a bit.
I love CRN. Remember last year. Stuff like “we are ready to turn corner.” Or, we will play better. CRN is specific and focused.

Dodgers-UCLA link
back in my day, we always played IM softball against a team named “Sons of Garvey”

My frat always made it a point to go to Dodger Stadium on Hat Day
And that was our fraternity softball uniform. (Well, we had pants and shirts and shoes, too, but the only thing that matched was the Dodger hats.)
I can't imagine the traffic with 100K+ going to the two games
AND Neil Diamond at Staples Center…

stuck in SF
With no game coverage. Thank goodness for you guys. I’m on pins and needles waiting for each update.
Basically, we're in garbage time
28-3 with CForce in at QB

Love My Bruins
He's Better Each Game.
He’s learning, improving, staying calm, and getting more patient.
Love My Bruins
Game over at Dodger Stadium
Cubs have to wait at least another year.
Sad about the Cubs, but in a sense it’s nice to know that there are some constants in the universe.
I would prefer
not to become that kind of constant
"The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall." -Nelson Mandela
Best Cubs team of the past 100 years, some said
only to be swept by a mid-level MLB team in the division series.
Um... who was that
falling over himself and missing that play?

28-3 final
What an improvement!

Thanks BN!!!
For the best company for a game anywhere – that isn’t at the Rose Bowl.
Good to see the defense making some strides tonight.

Even Though We Played A Bad WSU Team
This has got to be a HUGE confidence-builder for our guys; particularly KC who I’m sure had the 59-0 debacle up at Provo in the back of his head.
