They remind me of Houston last year. Don't look top 10 but it's week 1 so I will give them a pass

2 td's off turnovers so far for ucla.

Are you kidding me? There only ranked 7th in the nation with several All American's. Virgna is not a good team, UCLA will win by at least 21. We always say that about teams that we will play in the future however; we have to remember we're at least one year away of having our offense keeping us in All games instead of our defense.

UCLA starts at UVA, then home against us, then back to Dallas against Texas.

It may not matter, but that's definitely a trap game.

Looks like if we get pressure on Hundley and don't turn the ball over, who knows?

they do look a tad sluggish, but I'll chalk it up to jet lag. They will be looking to rape us with a corn cob next week.

Peter...watch out for your cornhole, bud.

I did say I give them a pass because it's week 1. Also won 28-20

Home opener is NEVER a trap game.

They were holding back, not wanting to show too much for next weeks game.

This thread will loom largely in the near future.

I miss bruindawg.

2 teams with false ideas of who they are after today. UCLA is not as bad as they looked (they looked inept) and Tigers not as good as they looked. That said, let's hope we catch UCLA off their game next weekend! Can't wait to show up at the Rose Bowl.

It has happen in basketball in the past, but not everyone was happy and I expect a similar result for football if we ever reach a seven ranking.

Who cares? We have nothing to lose. That game will be close.

Objectively, based on our performance the past six years, there is good reason for UCLA to overlook Memphis. I hope our present team is better and UCLA does not realize it.

I just hope Ifedi is healthy...Tigers need to be full strength. With the 63-0 score, I'm thinking the line went from UCLA -27 to about UCLA -19?

If UCLA was laying 20 at UVA they are going to be laying a lot more than that at home against us. My guess is close to 30.
