Isn't Doc Kreis still the strength & conditioning coach at UCLA? Didn't GB basically fire him because of the number of injuries his training techniques caused?
Coincidence?

I think Doc was bum rushed out after he signed off on one too many Community Service time served forms during the "scandal" era
:lol:
Doc was (is) a jerk. I had my own experiences with him. I was happy to see him go.
The reason he beat UCLA is that he had all summer to prepare. Anytime, no matter where he has been, when he only has a week to prepare, his team looks awful
No kidding. I mean, this is BYU! They are the reason we have the BCS fiasco now. Voted number 1 after beating 6-6 Michigan!
I still think Slick will do okay (> 500 & a bowl) this year and next before the bottom really falls out.
Any time you get pummelled like that, doubts creep into everybody's mind about just about everything. This isn't the kind of game you just recover from. It takes all year. They might not win 4 games this year. Every time there's the slightest hint of a problem, the players will start to doubt themselves.
Kind of like losing 41-7 to Texas?
Ouch... 70-3 again. That was the single worst beat down I've ever seen in my life. That's when you knew Barney was finished. It was inexcusable that he could have let the CU program fall into such a state of disrepair. Sure the faux 'scandal' had something to do with the talent drop off but it had more to do with Barney's demeanor, his arrogance, his awful game day coaching. Good riddance to bad rubbish.
UCLA rushing stats for the game:
Net rush yards = 9
Attempts = 16
av / rush = 0.6 yards
Their running game will suck as long as he's there.
Buffs rushing stats:
1994 (last year of Mac): 517 rushes for 3206 yards. 6.2 ypc
1995: 443 rushes for 2084 yards. 4.7 ypc
1996: 409 rushes for 1635 yards. 4.0 ypc
1997: 363 rushes for 1491 yards. 4.1 ypc
1998: 453 rushes for 1355 yards. 3.0 ypc
He did a similar thing to UW, too.
1999: 491 rushes for 2087 yards. 4.3 ypc
2000: 487 rushes for 2329 yards. 4.8 ypc
2001: 418 rushes for 1229 yards. 2.9 ypc
2002: 454 rushes for 968 yards. 2.1 ypc
He is the destroyer of running games. And it's damn hard to win in college if you can't run the ball effectively.
