"On behalf of the entire UCLA football program, I respect the Pac-12's decision to suspend six of our players after the unfortunate incident in the second quarter of yesterday's Arizona game," UCLA Coach Rick Neuheisel said in a statement. "As a program, we certainly do not condone the actions of our student-athletes involved, no matter what circumstances they found themselves in at the time.

"As the head coach, I am very disappointed with their actions. I told each and every one of our players as much in the locker room, both at halftime, and at the conclusion of the game. Everyone here understands the expectations and responsibilities we share, and that representing UCLA on the field of play is a privilege."
