Bruins Nation, a UCLA Bruins community

Surprisingly, we have as many on the 1st and 2nd teams as Zona and the University of Successful Cheaters.

Per the official site, super-stud (but hobbled this year by injury) linebacker Akeem Ayers has been named as one of the five finalists for the Butkus Award, given each year to the top college linebacker. Let's hope Akeem can bring it home to Westwood. GO BRUINS

I haven't seen anyone post this yet. Jon Gold spoke with KP last night and our quarterback says he has a torn meniscus. He'll have surgery on saturday to determine just how bad it is.

CRN thinks Jake Locker and Andrew Luck are two best QBs in the conference. I would put Nick Foles up there as well given how well he fits in Arizona's spread but those two choices makes a lot of sense. I am sure Hello Kiffin will perceive this as some kind of slight against Matt Barkley. CRN also mentioned he is not a big fan of scheduling tough games early on. I can't really disagree with him there either. I think UCLA's scheduling has not been helpful in terms of rebuilding the program. GO BRUINS.
