... but so far it's a good night for his alma mater and current team.
Bruins are up by a score of 17-7 powered by the rushing of Derrick Coleman.
Kevin Craft and Derrick Coleman got our offense to a great start but then they stumbled around bit. At this point since we have a semblance of running attack going (94 yards in 24 carries), KC needs to focus on managing the game.
Meanwhile, we need our defense to tighten it up a little and FINISH STRONG.
Let's get it going in our second half thread.
GO BRUINS.

Good evening everyone
Glad to be joining what looks to be quite the party. I’ve been checking the score on my BB all night and it seems we are doing well.
I think Craft is only responsible for the second int
but he did fumble twice on top of that. He makes me nervous…

BO is "ready" behind him
I’d like to see us run up a lead and let BO play some.
Or, course there are lots of things I’d like …
sjh
wait....
BO didn’t make the trip did he? I heard he stayed in LA

Yeaa that's the point - they probably didn't see that coming.
One of the advantages of not having run game – when you finally do, it can be lethal
exactly
hate to say that much of that is probably on their D and not so much on us, though DC appears to be a big step up.
greg in denver - UCLA guy for life
We need to keep going with DC
hate to say it but I think we should use Bell now in relief efforts and go heavily with DC.
So, I am predicting 5 minutes into the half
someone will post about remaining on the first half thread and finally figuring out there was a second half thread after nobody responded to them…

I want them actively looking for walk-ons next year -- or now

Why isn't Perez taking those kick offs?
He was a goalie in high school and was discovered because of his goal kicks… same idea really, no?
I thought of that
They play the same season as football though.
It would have to be either a really good IM soccer player — or a player on the soccer team who has used up their soccer eligibility but still a student.

we might get a fair amount too. forbath is solid with onsiders

Has Streeter written an article about how wrong it is to fire Willingham?
Interesting there was no uproar up there.
sjh
It's hard to make a case to not fire a coach who's going winless in anything after his first couple years
CTS was bad, but at least he managed to win a few games.

K-Craft needs to roll out.
No more pocket passing for Crafty. He’s more effective on the roll.
Nestor
saw you checked that Alter Bridge link yesterday. They aren’t from CO. 3 of them were in Creed, now have a new singer, and a trillion times better sound than Creed. Anyway, thought I’d throw that out when you were propping Pearl Jam. I thought Ten was brilliant, and AB reminds me some of that album – though AB is a more rock and less grunge. And that is Dr Drew. VH-1 took that video for his show.

Got to love that.
Bringing CBH to UCLA is paying dividends on and off the court.
Sorry Husky fans
UCLA wins this game tonight. UCLA is not good but UDub is just really, really bad.

When can we expect a decent QB? 2010-2011?
Not talking about raw talent, but a QB that can deliver consistently.
That was discouraging.
Isn’t being a QB all about consistency… he may do well on most plays, but his mistakes are many and grave.
Do you think
he dreads the ass-chewing he knows he’s gonna get from CRN. Is it getting through?

I don't think its lack of effort

Easy money and faithless women, red-eye whiskey for the pain...

Can't defend Crafty anymore
We can still lose as long as Craft is taking snaps.
Dude
If there was someone better, he’d be in the game. Troy Aikman is no longer elligible.
Pete Carroll wears ladies' clothes.
LoL, I think he just knows there isn't much he can do at this point
Remember during the Tenn. game where he was throwing a tantrum at Craft? Those have quietly settled to just disappointing comments from CRN, where he’s pretty much just throwing his hands up and saying “what can you do…”.

Crafty is in rhythm.

Improvement
I’ve noticed some improvement this year at every position except the QB position. It is the most important position in college FB. Craft has had almost all the snaps this year. It takes at least 2 years for the QB to develop. I wonder if CRN and Coach Chow are set on him next year too. Otherwise, we need to develop a new QB next year, and the growing pains might continue for 2009-10
by UCLA Championships Made Here on Nov 15, 2008 9:34 PM PST reply actions
seeing
Carter is a surprise. He looked ok early on this season.
KC on the roll out
so much more successful with time to look down the field instead of having to take a 3 step drop and make a quick read
greg in denver - UCLA guy for life
A little note for some folks
We don’t need lectures on how to run this community.
No more warnings from here on out.
Hmm
Usually, I’d never question Norm Chow. He is, afterall, Norm Chow. A coaching genius.
But, for some reason, he keeps calling these slant routes that Craft can’t seem to get.
Every single time, the kid is throwing behind the damn receiver, and it keeps coming back to bite us.
Thre is some good young talent at key positions
front line and QB situation will continue to be big issues heading into next year.
i'm excited for Kai Maiava
on our O line. The guy is a monster according to Dohn
by bucknellbruin on Nov 15, 2008 9:38 PM PST up reply actions
Let's hope so
Doh! sometimes leaving us holding the bad.
Either way on Maiava, CRN knows our line needs help and he’s really working the JUCO OL circuit. It’s nice to see a head coach who is striving to improve the program by addressing needs, recognizing where his shortcomings were before, and working to fix it.
I'd love to see what Bell could do
if he was completely healthy and running behind a solid line.
Excellent drive
Burned up a ton of clock. Great mix of passes and runs. Now, punch it in.
Pete Carroll wears ladies' clothes.
Go Beavers!
Can they take their final two and keep SUC out of the rose bowl?
If we can score here that would pretty much wrap things up

Well It'll be a win, but what a sloppy win.
I look forward to the day we have top players playing at the top of their game. You know, consistency and all that.
Glad to see Rotstein found the bench
I don’t think Forbath is the solution, but I’m glad CRN has finally gotten tired of these garbage kicks from Rotstein
That was a well done drive
Even if we didn’t have the correct quarterback in the game.
How about a moratorium on calling for Craft to be pulled? Can we agree that Coach Neuheisel and Coach Chow have a slightly better take on who should be playing than anyone here has?
I understand
Where these guys are coming from. I’m not a fan of Craft, at all. His throws are behind on the slant, he shows poor decision making, etc.
But guys, here’s the problem: CRN and NC have looked at all of our QB options. Craft is the best option we have. He may not be a very good option, or an option we’re happy with, but it’s the best hand we have.
You’re not going to get dealt a straight or flush on every hand. Sometime you got to play the pair of 4’s and hope for the best.
Give it time and CRN and NC will have this program back on track, and, if NC is still around, maybe have a QB or two contending for the Heisman. Hell, those hacks Palmer and Leinart looked like gold under NC and we’ve seen them get tiotally exposed in the NFL.
But to say someone here is not allowed to criticize...
is akin to saying we shouldn’t have been allowed to call for KD’s firing because DG should know what he’s doing.
by Space_Monkey on Nov 15, 2008 9:49 PM PST up reply actions
There's a difference between fair criticism and beating a dead horse
Calling for Craft to be pulled time and time again is a waste of everyone’s time. Yes, the kid isn’t getting the job done, but we don’t have anyone better on the bench, or believe you me, CRN and NC would have that guy in the game.
The fact of the matter is, is that Craft is our QB, whether we like it or not. Criticize the guy’s poor decision making or tendency to throw it behind his receiver, but continuing to call for him being pulled is just a big a** waste of time.
Any bets on the Apple Cup?
Gracious these two Wash. schools are train-wreck bad
It’s either going to be a 5-3 snoozer or 63-60 wild one.
Easy money and faithless women, red-eye whiskey for the pain...

football in the state of Washington
is pretty ugly right now. wazzu I can understand, huskies have fallen further than I thought they would.
I hate to kick a guy when he's down
but as far as I can see, Willingham is currently the worst D-1 coach around. He hated to see the man in the empty suit leave UCLA because CTS was the only coach who had less of a clue. I think Washington will be back fairly quickly. I thought Barbara Hedges was as inept as both Willingham and CTS, and now that Ms. Hedges and Willingham (can’t call him Coach Willingham, sorry) are gone, they should do OK.

Does he have any eligibility left?
by UCLA Championships Made Here on Nov 15, 2008 9:49 PM PST reply actions
Not sure, but good question
If the NCAA gives him this year as a medical RS, then he’d have one year left, correct?
If they say no dice, then he’d be done.
i don't think so
he already used a medical redshirt, so i don’t think he would get another one
he would have to file an appeal and who knows if he’d win that
by bucknellbruin on Nov 15, 2008 9:51 PM PST up reply actions
that may be,
but he was pretty confident that he could get another year, yet didn’t see a point in going through another off-season + staying in school for no other reason.
You'd think the ML ad people would think, perhaps we should hold off on these ads during UCLA games
If anything, it may lower sales
I hope Dean gets the ball this series!!!
Cmon CRN, I wanna see what he can do!!

Direct quote from the announcer answers your Q.
Way too much made of CRN's supposed "tantrums" directed at KC.
They don’t show every other coach yell at a kid or every other player that gets coached.
Could it be that some of the suckisity
has to do with our defense playing a nice game? Sure, Washington is bad, but we have our foot on their throat and we’re not letting up.
(And as I say that, the return crosses midfield.)
It is a really damn good thing Washington sucks really, really bad

With the sound off, it's easy to reach Coach Neuheisel's lips
He just told Craft “You can’t do that” regarding his little flip toward the end zone, then he pantomimed the guy running it back for a TD.
think Big Ben will play this year?
or Crafty for the rest of the season. Crafty against SUC…………….yikes
Craft is what he is ...
A JC QB.
And if he is this mediocre … I am assuming Chow has concluded that Forcier is not JC material (or at least will never fit in our system).
If I were Forcier… I’d start looking at other schools if wanting to stick with football.
Agree with all that
If Craft sucks, then I have to believe that our best QB sucks. I have to believe that if there was a less sucky QB, he would be in there.

Defense
The defense played well for 3 quarters against UofA, Cal, and OSU, but the inept offense kept them on the field for too long in those games, and the dam eventually burst. I wish we had this defense in 1998.

Craft's confusion
I believe Craft’s dad was his coach at SDSU and at the JC. Perhaps, he hears his dad’s voice, CRN’s voice, and Coach Chow’s voice during each play, and he is just simply confused, ha, ha!

voices
Ok, my husband (UCLA grad, too) is a psychiatrist. Do you want me to ask him if he think’s Kevin is hearing voices? He’s still in his dinner clothes rolling his eyes at the game. Maybe he should fly up to Washington and start writing scripts for anti-psychotics? I just can’t believe this season. I actually rooted for CAL today! NO WAY! CAL? Yes…Craft. I miss Cowan, I miss Cowan! I also miss last year’s defense.

That was a great catch

Audibles
On the UCLA radio today: Wayne Cook said that Craft needs to read the defenses and trust his audible calls, especially if the defense loads the box against the run.
Matt Stevens replied no way. I trust whatever play Coach Chow calls and run it.
The discussion went back and forth by both former QBs

high school
Do you guys ever get up here to Carmel? Our high school team creamed Pacific Grove today, in a rival match. Our QB can run circles around Craft…not kidding.

Quick question
Is Forcier pronounced with the r sound at the end?

I thought so too
Only reason I’m asking is because he was just pronounced with the r and it happened to pique my interest.

Biggest Sign
This year that the coaching staff knows what they are doing:
We have not lost a game that we were supposed to win. While none of the victories have been spectacular this year, this stat jumps out at me the most. It means we’re getting ths most out of our kids, which is a good sign for the future.
Yep
I think we have a good chance against ASU in two weeks!

Absolutely true
And also absolutely late her. Good night all.
Not only that
But we also got a win against a team we were supposed to lose to (Tennessee).

Nice win
Still a fair share of mistakes, but at least we played a team that forgives mistakes. And in the end, we had a good run game, defense shut them down. We were supposed to win and we did. Well done.

Any more from state of WA??
I wish we could get a few more games against teams from the state of WA this year..
Easy money and faithless women, red-eye whiskey for the pain...
