There's football today! Football that counts! YAY! Our long off-season is now over!
The best part of away games: POLICE ESCORT ON THE 405.
Ahh tis the season of police escorts. The Bruins are headed to Rice

Those of you who have been stuck in traffic on the way to LAX completely understand. Especially before Thanksgiving. Or on a Wednesday night...
Also nice to see: The Athletic Department was out to send the Bruins off:
The entire UCLA Athletic Department out to support us as we take off

Finally, in regards to the billboard "scandal" Danny Rees had the best take on it:
I hope UCLA doesn't fire back to USC w something regarding non revenue sports or # of national titles. Fire back on the football field.

You may argue he was "just" the field goal holder, but he understands just how to get back at your rival.
You take care of business.
GO BRUINS.
