All Ominous/Discouraging Signs Point to a Bruin Bloodbath in Oregon

Well it sure looks like the people who had been loudly clamoring for Richard Brehaut are about to get their wishes. All signs out of Spaulding points to number 12 either starting or getting significant amount of playing time during what is likely to be shaping up a Bruin massacre in Eugene.
Kevin Prince didn't practice on Monday and had another precautionary MRI on his injured knee:
Prince said the MRI was precautionary, and he quickly shot down the idea the current injury is related to the torn ACL he suffered before his senior year of high school.
"Simply because it wasn't necessarily getting better," Prince said about the decision to have an MRI done. "We've been trying to do different things, but it hasn't been improving as fast as we'd like it to. We want to get a good picture of what's going on in there."
Either way given that with just 2 days left till game day and yesterday was one of the most crucial days for practice, it is highly doubtful Prince is going to be starting on Thursday night. Norm Chow is trying hard to be coy about all this:
Offensive Coordinator Norm Chow said that even if a decision has been made on a starting quarterback for Thursday's game, the Bruins would be unwise to announce it.
"If we say Richard is that starter, they go watch the Washington State tape," Chow said. "Now, they're not sure and they're going to look at all the tape. We would be foolish to give away our guy now."
And right now it looks like it will not exactly be the smartest thing to do if UCLA coaches go with Kevin Prince in Eugene. Either way Bruins are screwed. Even with a healthy Price Bruins would have been an impossible situation against the explosive Ducks. With Brehaut at the helm, you can expect a violent, fired up Oregon defense coming after an inexperienced UCLA QB, operating a predictable, watered down Bruin offense. It is not going to be pretty.
Well to break up the grim reality just for a bit, though we inject a little levity in this whole QB mess. Here is how Chris Foster, the "bear reporter" for the Trojan Times hack "reported" news from yesterday's practice: 
That's right. Foster - a "beat reporter" - getting paid by what is supposed to be a credible paper thinks the game is on Saturday. Why is this clown allowed to "cover" UCLA again? lol
As for going back to our issues, here is Coach Rick Neuheisel talking about a "crisp" practice last night:
However, the reports indicate that practice overall was anything but crisp. From Jon Gold in the Daily News blog:
*[S]till seeing too much push on the exterior offensive line in pass protection. Expect Oregon to be extremely aggressive after watching that Cal film. Norm Chow will need to have a couple screen passes in the works, though screens have not been this team's strong suit he last couple years.
* Brehaut was not effective in 7-on-7 drills, including red-zone work toward the end of the session. Brehaut completed 2-of-6 passes, including a dump-off to Johnathan Franklin and a touchdown up the middle to Cory Harkey. Courtney Viney had a great pass breakup, Rahim Moore had an interception, Brehaut overthrew Ricky Marvray and was sacked once.
FWIW Gold did note that Brehaut looked "fantastic at times" and "much more comfortable" than he looked last week, the reports about him were mostly negative. Moreover, the feedback we have heard re. Darius Bell is not all that encouraging either.
Also Gold has the following notes on "bumps and bruises":
Neuheisel said it was becoming increasingly evident that the team would be without the services of starting sophomore cornerback Sheldon Price (knee) against the Ducks' powerful offense. Junior Courtney Viney and sophomore Andrew Abbott got most of the reps with the first-team defense, along with sophomore Aaron Hester, who has started all six games for the Bruins' this season. ... Junior wide receiver Nelson Rosario is still out with a sprained ankle, and his return for Oregon is doubtful. ... Linebacker Glenn Love, safety Dalton Hilliard (shoulder) and F-back Anthony Barr (calf) are back practicing, as was defensive end Keenan Graham (hip flexor) and running back Jordon James (hip).
The news about Anthony Barr, Dalton Hilliard are encouraging. We are going to need those guys but not sure how much it is going to help.
At this point it is not rocket science what Nick Alliotti and the Ducks will try to do to the Bruins on Thursday night. They are going to stack the box - just like Cal did - and dare the Bruins to beat them with our feeble and non-existent passing attack. Given our OL is not very good at pass blocking, our receivers are not very good at catching, and we are going to go with an inconsistent, young QB only making his second start of his career, not sure how much analysis is really necessary at this point to picture how it is going to go for the Bruins.
It is going to get ugly and it will get ugly really fast. Even if it doesn't get ugly fast, it will be a matter of time when the Ducks overwhelm and humiliate our guys on national TV. It is going to be a bloodbath. Heckuva job scheduling this game on national TV guys.
GO BRUINS.

Darius Bell
So what is the feedback on Darius Bell? Hope we can get at least 2 defensive TDs and 2 field goals for 20 points to Oregon’s 56?
I have a hunch
he’ll get quite a few minutes. With Prince likely out, Brehaut will get the start. Regardless of who starts, it’ll be ugly, unless our OL has an incredible night and our receivers have a chance to and actually do catch the ball. Assuming KP is out of the picture, I predict we’ll see Bell no later than mid-third quarter, whether it’s because Brehaut has been knocked out or because we’re already down by 50+ points…or both.
Roses are red, violets are blue...f*** $C.
regarding the scheduling of this game...well in all honesty no one thought we would be this bad...
this far into the season…Prince was going to be healthy, and our passing attack was going to be vertical, while our running game had mr inside and mr outside…or so it seemed last spring…funny how hope always springs eternal…then reality hits and here we are…this could have been a much more competitive game given the hopes we all had, and i do not fault UCLA from agreeing to this thursday night match-up when it was arranged back in the late spring…i thought we would be 4-2 by now…with only loses to Standford and Texas…oh well…
are you kidding?
this was always likely to be a horrible matchup, Autzen on a Thursday night. If we were a lot better, then we would be annoyed that this game was put out of reach by that advantage; as we are pretty bad, then the issue is going from a loss to a big beatdown on national TV. But this scheduling is less frustrating that the UW and ASU games to me because those games were more winnable.

Double DUH!
CNC was probably keeping his tongue in his cheek — anyone really think that Kelly and staff won’t watch the WSU tape unless they know Brehaut is starting?
And, why tell Foster that the game is on Thursday? Let him fly to Oregon on Saturday. That would be better for all involved.
sjh
If they have to watch tapes of two different QBs
in theory it keeps them from watching one QB with lot of detail. However this is mitigated by the fact that they had a bye week as well…so it’s a wash.
But hey, what do I know. I’m just the 800 lbs bruin in the room.
If they were smart
they would go watch tape on Blake Arnet.
But hey, what do I know. I’m just the 800 lbs bruin in the room.
that is the genius of CRN/CNC to date:
there is no tape on Blake Arnet.
$c won’t know what hit ’em.

True, but's lets look on the bright side...errr, or something...
Nestor,
All this is indeed true…which is why we need to be very careful as Bruin fans to always remember where we were coming from for this season. Like you have before, I just want to remind us all not to go jumping off any bridges.
Recall we thought this was going to be a five to seven win season…at best. Our expectations are to see improvement in the team. At 3-3 we can look downhill and still see the possibility of 5 to 6 wins. What none of us anticipated or expected was the scope and the dynamics of the injury bug and just the depth and strength of the Pac 10 this year. Let’s all agree that this mountain we’re climbing this season has gotten a lot steeper than we thought it would be.
I am actually excited about how the season finishes. I want to see how this team handles adversity, how the coaching staff continues to react and adjust and I want to see us continue to fight. CRN will have the continuing opportunity to recruit well and, importantly I think make some serious adjustments to his coaching staff in the off-season…serious adjustments.
It is easy to be impatient. So many years have elapsed since "the streak" and since the last Rose Bowl appearance. If you had told me in 1982, when I became a season tickets holder, that in the intervening 28 years there’d of been no National Championships…and so many dry years…well, that is another story.
I am with you
There will be no jumping off the bridges on my end. I actually feel cautiously optimistic about how we are going to finish this season. That said Thursday night is going to be brutal. I wish we had the game on Saturday and got it over with, and looking forward to Arizona.
plenty of us anticipated and expected the depth and strength of the Pac 10 this year
if anything, I was expecting the conference to have more depth in strength – but in fact, other than the top teams, the rest of the conference has been very up and down. Wasn’t expecting Cal to get beaten by Nevada, wasn’t expecting UW to lose to a mediocre BYU team and get so dominated by Nebraska, was expecting OSU to play Boise State and Texas Christian a little closer, etc.
And when you say “our expectations are to see improvement in the team”, have you seen an overall improvement in our team this year??
by britishbruin on Oct 19, 2010 7:21 AM PDT up reply actions
Ummm...sorta'
…I expected the Defense to be less capable this year…you can’t lose a guy like BP and improve and we’re into the second year away from the previous DC. Bullough isnt capable and the receivers have been awful.
However before KP got hurt the offense looked improved, the line was serviceable, the running game was much improved and the team showed “flashes.”
I also thought that CRN and CNC reaching out to Nevada for help and Chris Ault opening the playbook and staff to them…the kind of thing we’d generally not have seen and clearly demonstrated a change in mentality at the top of the program. I give huge kudo’s to our staff and Chris Ault’s staff for that.
Not making excuses for CRN but the cupboard was VERY bare, recruiting is a fickle thing and the team continues to show just how immature and young it is. I expect CRN to make some definitive coaching moves in the off-season and have another good recruiting class.
So…I have seen improvement? Yes and no. It’s worrysome (the “no” part) and I am not lowering my expectations. I do want to see how this team finishes the season. If these kids put their collective heads down and slump their shoulders and just chuck it in then we all should raise our voices about that and point that concern right straight at CRN.

right
a negative for every positive, I think; but a lot to do with departures, injuries etc. (WRs baffle me though…)
Getting to 6-6 would be an achievement and represent progress I think, but we are going to have to play better on average for our last 6 games than we played on average for our first 6 to make that happen.

At this point
Offense
QB: Prince has regressed due to injury issues; picture re. Brehaut is unclear.
RB: Arguably all of our RBs have improved. Although JetSki still needs to address his fumbling issues
OL: Run blocking has improved, however, credit also goes to RN/NC for their offensive scheming. Pass blocking remains less than mediocre, however, given the talent level it’s not a surprise.
WR: Atrocious
F Back: Incomplete (withhold judgment since this is the first year in the offense).
Defense
DL: Carter/Edison/Marsh/Chandler … have proven to be average (not surprising given their talent level and experience)
LB: Cal game was horrendous but over all this unit has made some strides. Would like to see more of Love than Westgate
Safeties: Tony Dye has been solid but haven’t seen a lot of improvement in Moore’s game. Dalton Hilliard before he got hurt was playing well.
Corners: Hester is kind of a mess but not suprising b/c it’s his first year starting (last year he was out in the first game). I actually think Sheldon Price has taken steps forward but he needs to cut down the tauning BS.
So looking at the picture on offense RBs have improved. OL have had some mixed results. QB picture is unclear and the WRs have been a disaster.
On defense arguably we have seen improvements at LB, safeties and even CB spot. However, the results are even due to injury/experience and the much discussed scheming issues.
It’s a muddle picture right now. I think we will know more after 6 games. Of course it’d be extreme for people to argue that team is regressing or taking definitive steps forward (in terms of development) but I am sure the morons in tradmed will make those hyper-conclusions after every freaking game.
Look at it this way...
After Oregon, any other team we play this season will be a relative cakewalk. I think.
yeah
even Seattle on a Thursday should be easier after going into Autzen on a Thursday…
by britishbruin on Oct 19, 2010 7:22 AM PDT up reply actions
Well, yeah...
odds are we won’t play another BCS top-5 team. Arizona probably can’t even make it to top-10 BCS before we play them. As far as the strength of the opponents relative to us, unfortunately that’s another story. We may go from being completely demolished by Oregon to simply getting our asses kicked at least one more time this season.
Roses are red, violets are blue...f*** $C.
Finally
I’m not questioning the heart of KP but I’m sick & tired of having a less than 100% QB leading our team. My frustration is directed to the staff for sending an injured QB out there when we have a healthy option. Is Brehaut the answer to our offensive ills? Doubt it considering we have many issues on offense which I gotta say, didn’t see some of it before the season.
Look at it this way, the team is likely gonna be taken to the woodshed and Brehaut is going to struggle (probably a lot). We all knew this was likely a loss so if Brehaut can come away from this game without having his confidence destroyed, I think it’s a positive for UCLA football.
I was hoping for more but if we can just get to a bowl game, I’ll be satisfied with the season. Maybe next year, we’ll finally be able to both run and pass the football in the same season. :(
KP is going to set the Bruins back for several years...
I think the kid is great if he’s not injured for a long stretch of time, which is to say, almost never. I think it’s past the point now where we can label him as “fragile”, and “Injury-prone”. It’s so critical to the long-term success of a program that the QB develops well, and we can’t have that with KP if he’s going to be skipping every second or third game.
What I’m saying is, we should just move on to developing our second and third string QBs, because if we stick with KP and he happens to continue his pattern of injury, we’re not going anywhere in 2011 either.
Exactly what I was thinking too
A lot of UCLA fans/experts (including me) have been anticipating 2011 to be the year we make our move. As for me, I thought we’d have a seasoned RS JR QB in KP leading us with talent all around our roster also maturing. Football begins and ends with both lines (which we are very weak in) BUT you also need a capable QB which has eluded us these past few years for various reasons.
We need to figure out our QB and move forward. If KP continues to get nicked up, we need to move onto Brehaut IMO. We cannot go through this again next season. If neither is the answer, we’re looking at Hundley being a viable option to start as a True FR. I like him a lot but we’re not a stable enough program to start a True FR at QB. I’m bouncing around a bit but if 2011 blows up in our face, CRN will be on a very warm to hot seat IMO.
Richard Brehaut = John Barnes?
Just kidding… but still, sometimes the back-up QB coming off the bench creates an urgency among the team, a little extra emotion, and special things happen.
Which in this case would only mean the Bruins don’t start getting truly hammered until the second quarter.
It is what it is. I love my Bruins, but this one could get ugly…
lol
Well John Barnes did lead the Bruins to a road victory in Eugene. Lot of folks forget about that game in 1992 but it was actually the coming out party for Barnes2JJ.
I predict
this is the coming out party for Darius Bell to Jason Allmond.
I randomly saw Jerry Rice in the downtown area of where I live two weeks ago
My husband froze, he couldn’t say anything. Unfortunately, we were driving, or else I would have been:
“Mr Jerry Rice! I was a huge fan of the Niners growing up!
And I loved you on Dancing with the Stars and on DanceCenter with Kenny Mayne! I hope you do it again this season and you pick apart Kurt Warner’s frying pan hands!
And I hope your son catches a pass this year for the Bruins!!"
then I would have attacked him with my camera.
if Autzen were the Hoosier Dome circa 1992...
“Rick Neuheisel… he don’t have a QB left!”
“wait… that’s Arnet’s music!!”

I never thought Prince
would be able to play, short of a medical miracle, and I don’t think Chow and Neuheisel were ever led to believe that it was likely he would play, either. Prince is a young guy, who has undoubtedly had cortisone/lidocaine injections, a ton of NSAIDs, mountains of ice, excellent physical therapy, some rest, and still the swelling and stiffness linger. I’m not an orthopedist, but I have had a bad knee for years, and gone through all that. Diagnosis: overuse, with a bit of arthritis added recently. Doctors’ recommendations: don’t subject the knee to the strain of running, starting and stopping, and, most especially, planting and cutting. Having little to lose, I ignore this advice, and keep limping along. But Prince just needs more rest, unless they find something inside the knee that can be fixed. Brehaut will just have to play, and play well. Is that so inconceivable? But so will everybody else. Our problems are not all on the QB, and we should stop obsessing about it. Soon the Oregon game will be over. Whatever the outcome, we will have to gather ourselves and move on. I am sure we are going to win some games. It’s always right now, you know. 2011 does not exist.
Agree with Orz
The QB in this system not only is throwing the ball but he has to be able to run, too. With a bad knee, running is very hard to do – throwing also. Let’s rest Prince and hope he gets better and let’s all get behind Brehaut and Bell and cheer the BRUINS on to victory this Thursday evening. GO BRUINS!

I was just thinking...
I don’t recall in recent years a game that appeared so un-winable where we actually went in and got our asses handed to us quite like everyone expected, or worse. Someone help me here. I’m talking 28+ points or more. Sure, we have gotten our asses handed to us in many games that were supposed to be competitive (Stanford, Cal, BYU, Utah) But not in games where we were expected to get a thrashing. I guess my point is I hope this trend continues for us…at least for another week. Getting crushed in those “competitive” matchups sucked even worse. I don’t mind losing, but getting having Oregon mop up the field with us will hurt, regardless of them being the #1 team. And it will be a terrible thing for this team’s confidence for the rest of the season.
Comments on BN
First time post, but i’ve read BruinsNation for a loooong time. Nestor, to be honest, back in the day I hated your guts, and lots of peoples’ guts around this website. I figured you all for hacks and hate mongers back in the Dorrell days. However the more I read BN, the more satisfied I become that this is a place for intelligent Bruins fans to discuss the state of the program and mull over every detail (with some good ‘ol fashioned Bruin hand-wringing for good measure). I really appreciate your input and well thought-out opinions. That goes for most everyone on the board as well. Game analyses are as good as I have ever seen (i’m not an x’s and o’s guy), but I just wanted to say keep up the good work.
As for our Bruins, I think our biggest problem is finally bearing fruit. The loss of the six projected top o-lineman has finally come back to bite us. The filthy five have worked wonders, but I personally believe the scheme deserves most of the credit. Imagine having XSF and Abele as our tackles with big Stan Hasiak at guard, working the same scheme? We’d have a passing game, although the drops and Prince’s regression have constantly hurt this team. The defense would get more rest, we’d have a two-dimensional offense, and finally, we’d be able to have some big play ability. Norm Chow thrives on the dink and dunk passes, so lordy i hope we can find some solutions to this. We aren’t going to be able to run forever, especially with a gimpy Prince at QB.
Welcome
Glad you have stuck around and seen that BN is really about finding the best in UCLA athletics (even if it does mean slinging a little hate when we see that it’s time for a change).
Good points on the O line. I’m always harping on that. I’m particularly worried this week that without the running threat posed by a healthy KP that the running backs will be the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd focus of the Oregon defense, and Brehaut will be forced to throw to make the offense go. And given our WR’s, and Brehaut’s lack of experience, we are really fighting an uphill battle this Thursday.
greg in denver - UCLA guy for life
welcome to the playground...
…bold opening candour…
Mostly agree with you on the O-line (though XSF was our starting LT last year rather than a guard… but that just emphasizes the issue when we are missing our top 2 LTs with Baca out as well). And if you have read my posts, you know I agree on the scheme playing a large role – to add to what I’ve said previously, there’s a clear difference in the performance of our OL when they are in attack mode and have the element of surprise/misdirection in the run game, and the performance of our OL when they are in ‘defend the pocket’ mode and trying to pick up defensive pressure. I imagine our pass game would fare little better if we were running our previous offense, and that our run game would be a lot worse, so I give a lot of credit to CNC, CRN for the scheme and CBP for making it work.

Furthermore
Significantly, I think our patchwork DL has seen great success (relatively of course) compared to their potential to be disastrous. Owa has been something of a revelation, considering the loss of both Iuta Tepa and Datone. I think the true story comes out when thinking about the loss of skill position and line players to injury on our roster. Consider: XSF, Hasiak, Abele, Baca, Maiava for the o-line, Jones, Tepa, for the d-line, Rosario, Fauria’s struggles (in my mind are practically just a sidelining injury), Anthony Jefferson, Dalton Hilliard, Josh Smith (during the offseason), the list goes on and on, and i’m forgetting people. Not to mention the loss of potentially effective playmakers in Shaquille Richardson and Shirley, who personally I would hope could be starting at this point in place of Westgate.
When really put in perspective, these losses are staggering, and i’m frankly surprised we’ve done as well as we have. So as much criticism as the coaches should get for their struggles (Cal and Stanford had several remote-throwing episodes at the o-bruin apartment), they deserve as much praise for their unexpected successes. As Nestor so neatly qualified, we’re waiting for the train. Will it be here next year? We’ve got some big kids coming in, and though i’m likely dreaming, a new starting quarterback in Brett Hundley. Look at it this way, he’s graduating early, meaning most importantly, lots of weight room and playbook time, and secondly, if Denard Robinson can come in and dominate at Mich, or Andrew Luck at stanford, what could we do with the right quarterback, an experienced and healthy offensive line, hopefully some recommitted wide recievers, and a defense with experience? The train might be a comin’.
Final thought: Oregon, my home, is a rough place to play in. But i’ve watched oregon be humiliated there before. Though they’re #1 and deservedly so, they’ve still got a young quarterback. He can be knocked out of rhythym and if we can keep the score low, who knows. Maybe, just maybe, we can be world beaters. I rationally tend to side with Nestor, however. But that’s why they play (and we obsess) about the game.
Alas alas,
If the Bruins keep up ONE tradition, it’s playing UP to opponents, and DOWN to opponents. It’d be nice if we can keep that up for at least one MORE week and play at a level that will leave us asking why it isn’t seen more.
Glimmer of hope
I don’t think we are going to win, but looking at the size differential between our OL and their DL, I think our only hope is to run the ball down their throat (i.e Texas). I know they are going to stack the box, but if we run, and pass only to keep them guessing a little bit we can keep their offense off the field, and keep the game managable. Brehaut does not have to run the ball as good as Prince to be effective. He just has to read the QB/RB run option correctly, and if he runs get 4 to 6 yards a pop, and I think he can do that. He also has to be accurate with the few passes he throws, and throw it deep a few times just to keep them honest. All that said I don’t know how we are going to stop their offense. I think we need some big plays like sacks, and turnovers, or we are in trouble. That’s how I see it anyway.
Hope
Similarities to Texas game -
1) We outweigh their defensive line by a lot
2) We are going into a hostile environment
3) We are big underdogs
(#2 and #3 point toward that emotion that Nestor was talking about)
Dissimilarities
1) Oregon’s Offense is much, much, much more explosive
2) We aren’t coming off a nice win.
3) We are relatively more dinged up.
4) Our overall talent level is actually on par with Oregon.
That said, I think we absolutely can win this. For whatever reason, we match up well with Oregon. Last years game was a goal line stand and a couple of fluke plays from being a very, very close game. In fact, we were clearly the better team in the first half. I think our speed matches well with the spread offense. I worry about what our offense can do, but I am one those that thinks, just forget about passing except to keep Oregon honest and run the ball even if they stack the box. Just run right at them and let emotion, adrenaline, and sheer mass pave the way down the middle of the field. Use misdirection to keep them on their heels.
My one real prediction – Damien Thigpen drops a kickoff, then picks it up and runs the length of the field for 6.
Were you guys expecting a big loss at Texas?
Anytime a big win or loss is expected, it seems to turn out the opposite. As a Duck fan, I was expecting the Washington St. game to be yawner, almost a bye week. You saw what happened: Half the team got dinged up, there were about 5 or 6 turnovers and we “only” won by 20! Anything can happen in sports, ANYTHING! With that being said, it just may be a bloodbath and I hope it is… but I’m still VERY nervous! Good luck to you guys on Thursday
Nah ... no reason to be nervous
You got nothing to fear. You guys are going to have a great time on Thursday night.
When is 03rdn9 going to complete
his “Death by Ducks” series? The waiting is killing me. Plus, the rain is making my knee hurt.
WOW
I was feeling a little optimistic before reading all of the comments. lol
I’m hoping we can somehow find a way to dig deep, fight and scratch our way to a 40 point loss. I hope it doesn’t get too out of hand for the recruits watching on TV.

Zero Pressure on our Bruins
While I think we have absolutely no chance against Oregon, I felt the exact same way before our game against Texas. Here’s hoping to the Bruins playing loose without fear (with a feeling of there being nothing to lose) and making the game interesting. The Bruins have been wildly inconsistent this season and just hoping they will have a great game this Thursday.
Go Bruins!
