UCLA Bruins @ BYU Cougars
Here we go.
Let’s get this started. Bruins are on the road for the first time under Rick Neuheisel.
As we have discussed all week Bruins are going to be huge underdogs this afternoon going up against one of the best offenses in the nation on their home turf. We are going to need our young QB and the developing offense to show the same poise and maturity they showed in the second half in its first game, and they will need a memorable performance from these guys …

… DeWayne Walker’s defense.
The kickoff time is scheduled for 12:30 pm PST. Again, if need to get caught up on all of our notes concerning this game from last few weeks/months, you can do so by going here. Also you can click on the links below under "Related Item" for updated game stats and track the game via WWL, CBS Sportsline, and UCLA's official site.
So let's go ladies and gentleman. Let's fill up up the first road game thread of the Rick Neuheisel era with everything we got in our passion buckets.
Fire away.
GO BRUINS.

Ready And Fired Up!
Unlike some of the Big 10 venues today (Iowa City, Evanston, East Lansing) the weather looks good in Provo. Hope our guys are ready to go out and knock the snot out of BYU.
Los Angeles Rams and the UCLA Bruins!!!!!

3 minutes left in the Cal game
35-20 Maryland. Cal now has the ball on their own 20 after a missed Maryland FG.

I really hope Cal can pull it out (although it doesn't look likely)
or else my roommate will be hell to live with…

Oh Great....
We get to relive the memory of the blocked FG attempt at the end of the Las Vegas Bowl coming up on the pregame show.
Los Angeles Rams and the UCLA Bruins!!!!!

Tedford is a decent coach
But he is starting remind me of a slimmer Bob Toledo.

good recruiter, good x and o
terrible manager of personalities and team.
His team has been moving in opposite directions and in dischord since last year and he still hasn’t resolved it. They have been playing below their talent level for quite a while.

I’ve watched HS telecasts that were better than this.

I like this little rivalry with BYU
But we really need to stop playing Mountain West teams at their place until their conference dumps this Versus bullsh*t.

Oh, well, I can “see” it on the radio…

Damn.
4th & 1. Glad they’re going for it, though. :)
LET’S GO!
Love My Bruins

going for it on 4th
how many times would KD have even contemplated? Forced BYU to take a TO, too. Ketchum should have known where the sticks were though.
by sponkey21 on Sep 13, 2008 12:40 PM PDT 0 recs
Smart move by CRN
Too early to risk going for it on 4th and 1 deep in our own territory. But head-faking BYU to cost them a TO and then running the offense out before running the punt team out was nice.
KD would never have been that head’s up.

So close
Hall is carving up the defense, but if they’re sloppy with the ball, we have a chance
by norcald503 on Sep 13, 2008 12:43 PM PDT 0 recs
D needs to step it up
they are winning the battle in the trenches in the early going.
by Nestor on Sep 13, 2008 12:43 PM PDT 0 recs
sloppy play
early. Unga is just stuttering in the backfield and waiting for holes. Corners too soft, and D line getting no pressure. Could be a long day if we keep this up.

If someone could post any big plays, it'd be greatly appreciated :-)
sailing around the South Pacific might be nice.. but bandwidth and TV reception is crap :-(

nothing big
just consistent, they have a first down in the red zone

TD BYU
Damn … they made it look very easy … and I imagine Walker will need to make some adjustments fast.

TD BYU
Pitta on a 10 yard TD reception.
Defense looked sorry. Let them walk down the field.
by norcald503 on Sep 13, 2008 12:48 PM PDT 0 recs
Lockett looks rusty
Slow to react on coverage and a missed tackle on Pitta. Got to step up.

we are going to need to pick at least a first down or two
and get our defense some rest.

Hall never had anyone come within 4 yards of him, neither did their receivers

First things first, next defensive drive
force an incompletion

The Kid id going to have to come out & play right now.

No pressure. No coverage.
There was what, one good defensively play on that drive? And even that went for positive yardage. They gained on every single play. Could be a long day.

Offense
needs to get us something, but we can’t get into a shoot out, it will end badly
by sponkey21 on Sep 13, 2008 12:50 PM PDT 0 recs
Nice run by Carter there on the option
and sweet block by TT.
by Nestor on Sep 13, 2008 12:52 PM PDT 0 recs
That was a scary little high pass..scared me, anyway.

dang
poor throw by craft, way too low, could have been a first down too
by sponkey21 on Sep 13, 2008 12:54 PM PDT 0 recs
Damn
Nice play option but Craft short hops it … 3rd and 6,

Michigan sucks
They’re so overrated and I am so damn tired of hearing how “great” their rivalry with overrated Ohio State is.
Speaking of Ohio State, every year everyone thinks they’re a contender and then they get exposed for being soft. First by Florida, then by LSU, and this year, after seeing how sorry they were against Ohio, U$C is going to just destroy them in the Masoleum.
