Once again I am way too excited to wait till 12:30 pm PST to put up our pre-game thread. We still have more than ten hours go till kickoff tonight. I can't wait to see our guys come out in blue home jerseys at the Mosoleum. For those of you who are heading over to South Central this afternoon please make sure to keep your camera handy. We'd love to get a flavor of the surroundings and your experience no matter what takes place tonight.
Meanwhile, it's a tense rivalry Saturday around the country.Oklahoma is taking on Oklahoma State in their annual "Bedlam" out in Stillwater (Sooners are up 3-0 in their unusual underdog role in this game). Out over here in the Mid-Atlantic/Southern region USC is taking on Clemson, while UNC and UNC and NC State are getting it on near Tobacco road. There is also the battle between Ole Miss and Mississippi State and a big one coming up between Florida and Florida State at 12:30 pm PST. Georgia Tech and Georgia (5 pm PST kickoff) can also keep us pre-occupied at least till our kickoff. Full score board over here.
So enjoy the full Saturday Rivalry slate. Also, if you haven't done it yet make sure you get in your pre-game guess here. We will close that thread up when we post our own game thread around 6:30 pm PST. Have fun.
GO BRUINS.

If only the game were televised
just two hours away in San Diego. How does this happen?
Here a comment about it from a local San Diego paper
Remember when the UCLA-USC football game was the biggest thing since chocolate pudding? It was always a national TV game.
ABC would roll out its best crew and use all the bells and whistles on the telecast.
Well, Saturday’s game in the L.A. Coliseum is on Fox Sports Prime Ticket -- a network that is generally not available in San Diego because the folks at Fox and Cox Communications can’t come to an agreement over scheduling and payment.
Kickoff is 7 p.m., a good time on Saturday with nothing good on primetime TV.
College notes
While UCLA-USC is on a station most don’t get in San Diego, ABC will carry Notre Dame-Stanford live at 5 p.m. Sorry, but I’m not into the Charlie Weis death watch, so this game is a great big zero.
There are 20 college football games on TV Saturday and seven Friday. Nine involve top-25 teams.
Only one game -- No. 22 Utah at No. 18 Brigham Young -- features two top-25 teams. That 2 p.m. contest is on the mtn. and CBS College Sports -- networks not available to all TV viewers.
Some of the traditional-rival Thanksgiving weekend games are bummers -- Nebraska-Colorado (12:30 p.m. Friday on ABC), No. 8 Pittsburgh-West Virginia (4 p.m. Friday on ESPN2), No. 23 North Carolina-North Carolina State (9:30 a.m. Saturday on Fox Sports Net), No. 1 Florida-Florida State (12:30 p.m. Saturday on CBS) and Arizona-Arizona State (12:30 p.m. Saturday on ABC).
Really, is the Arizona-Arizona State game a better network fit than UCLA-USC? And finally, the best game of the week is next Thursday’s Civil War showdown on ESPN between No. 16 Oregon State and No. 10 Oregon with the winner heading to the Rose Bowl to face Ohio State. Former Carlsbad High star Sean Canfield is Oregon State’s quarterback.
Which kind of shows
where this formerly great rivalry has fallen nationally. It’s just not even on the radar anymore. ABC considers ASU/Arizona a better game for TV. sigh
No they don't
The fantastic TV contract of the Pac-10 gives Fox Sports the rights to the UCLA/USC game every four years. This is their game and as a result, ABC didn’t have the chance to select our game.

It was written about in various papers prior to the season
when the game was first announced as being broadcast by Fox.

THIS STINKS!
I of course live in San Diego which means I will now have to drive to a friends house in the OC or find a local sports bar. Sigh. The Pac-10 needs a better TV deal. This is bullsh!t.

Don't forget the conclusion of the Al Groh death watch
Virginia Tech visits Charlottesville this afternoon, in what should be Groh’s final game as head coach of Virginia.
Early games
In the latest of several early rivalry game upsets, Oklahoma State’s BCS at-large hopes are being dashed by the Sooners this afternoon, OU holding a 20-0 lead entering the 4th quarter.
Earlier this morning, South Carolina beat #15 Clemson 34-17, while Missippippi State defeated #20 Ole Miss 41-27, and NC State squeaked by #23 UNC 28-27.
An omen for this evening?
Bring it Home Brothers and Sisters
I’ll miss the game and thread.
My daughter’s Texas high school team is entering the fourth round of the State playoffs, tonight, at 6 CST. If the odds are right, and they lose, this will be Jen’s last Color Guard appearance in her high school career. Can’t miss that. (Actually, couldn’t miss any of the 3 years of her performances.)
We have won every game in which I participated in the game day thread. I’ll be back home before the 4th quarter. I hope to come home to a game in which we have a huge lead.
My best to all of you. And, I’ll see you all, later tonight.
Go Bruins!!! Our time has come.

PS. Will justin or one of the net feeds work on 3g on an iPhone.
would love to stop in every once and a while.

I don't think it does
I am not completely versed on the technical details, but I have tried accessing the feeds on my (non iPhone) smartphone without success. It has programs that allow for streaming video, as well as watching a Slingbox feed, but without success for the justin or channelsurfing feeds.
Maybe someone has developed an app to allow the feeds to work.

Unfortunately, ATT will not allow Slinbox on 3g, only on WiFi
I’ve got a Slingbox at home that will record the game.

Don’t want to jailbreak the phone, seems to open up too many problems.

AT&T has some serious bandwidth issues
And streaming video uses a ton of data. The Slingbox restriction is just one of the measures that AT&T is taking so to minimize usage of the network (also the delayed introduction of MMS, and the block on tethering).

could be worse
I would do more to have the game available at a local sports bar than, than I’d do to get a Klondike bar! I have been in Germany for all except the first game of the season, and while the PAC 10 TV contract is shit, it beats waking up at 4am to watch it on a possibly non-existent internet stream.
That being said, I would like to thank the Mbah streaming that has taken place throughout the season, without it, I would not have been able to see any of this season’s games save for one or two lucky ones. Let’s hope he posts a link to the SC game tonight(this morning for me). So, to Mbah, thankyou for your efforts, they are greatly appreciated.

Women's basketba took a 2 point lead into half
at #6 Tennessee, but it looks like they’re going to lose by 10-12.

Was following the general UCLA Athletics one hoping for an update. Come onnnnn Bruins! Season on the line here. We took a one goal lead into the 4th a couple weeks ago against SC, but gave up 2 in the 4th. Hopefully we’ve learned our lesson and can hold on.

Just tweeted this
UCLA football is 5-1 (not counting OSU since it wasn’t broadcast LIVE) in games broadcast by Fox this season (1-0 in CBS, 0-3 on ABC)
When did we play on CBS?
They only do SEC games and our game at Tennessee was on ESPN wasn’t it? Maybe I’m wrong, but that’s my memory.

OT: Kansas/Missouri just finished
If anyone doubted Mangino would soon be unemployed, there won’t be any more questions. Kansas up 3, a couple of minutes left, their ball on their own 5 or so. Missouri 1 maybe 2 TO’s left. KU pass attempt: incomplete, clock stops. Second down KU pass attempt again: incomplete, clock stops. Third down: KU tries to pass, Reesing sacked in the end zone. Missouri gets ball on free kick, drives down to get game-winning FG. Just an incredibly stupid series of play calls. KU 7 straight losses, not bowl eligible. No doubt Mangino is toast now.
formerly AZBruin
minor detail I missed
KU series above was with about 2 minutes left…runs would have drawn the game clock to or very close to zero.
formerly AZBruin
Someonw, on some site (may have been a tWWl blogger) noted how badly Mangino has done @ Kansas
KU had that one really good year a couple of seasons ago (7-1 in the Big XII), but otherwise has a horrid record in conference + against decent ooc opponents.

1992.
1996 second best. Then 1993.
Watched most of all three today!
BTW, I am heading out tonight to meet a Bruin who pulled up to me at a stoplight earlier this week. That NEVER happens in Orlando. He saw my UCLA license plate cover. At the next light I tossed by my business card to him and asked him if he wanted to watch the game together. Excited to be watching the game with a fellow Bruin!
Brett Cheeseburger
just mentioned the brilliant future barkely has ahead of him, mentioned him with Masoli, Luck, and Locker.
No mention of Prince, although prince has outperformed in the games since he came back from injury…

Another underdog Georgia … dominating Georgia Tech at Georgia Tech (following OU-OSU trend).

Just made tOJams to sacrifice in support of the cause
Fanshot is posted… I need help deciding how they should die.
GO BRUINS!!!
My recommendation
Here is the link for those who are wondering what I am referring to:
Slice one up: it will help Prince carve up the defense
Smash one up: it will give Price ideas on how to slam Barkley in the turf
Split one up the middle: in honor of Kai Forbath
Does that work?
It's the pregame show on Prime Ticket in LA
They are mentioning about recruits deciding between UCLA and suc. James Washington said the recruits should think about the pros and cons of each.
I wished he said,
UCLA- great academic institution, most championships in the sports program, diverse alumni base, classy people overall
suc- is a JC on figueroa, most convicts in the nation in the sports program, our motto, “Cheat On”

James said he chose UCLA partly because he went to school in South Central and wanted to go away.
The Toejam player made a remark and JW laughed saying “yeah, Westwood was out of state for me”. LOL

Sheesh. That came out of the Athletic Department, not CRN, is what I heard.
