UCLA Pregame thread

[Jello Bear]

Down 16-7 to Fresneck in LA at halftime.

Might as well start here.

Shouldn't this be titled the "Official UCLA Hate Thread"?

Not until there is an Official simulation thread. It’s like an onion.

the Bruins are terrible: they sit at 0-3 for the first time since 1971 and have been out-scored 115-32.

Ouch

I know this isn't likely, but if Mac has a chance to hang 70 on Chip then I hope he takes it. I still remember Chip running up wild scores in Folsom against Embree

What's their QB situation like? Probably a good time for UCLA to have a bye week

 

[Bufffan68]

They are a mess and if we have the chance to pile it on I hope we do...because it’s CK and they’re the trash eaters.

They are trying to build for the future with Dorian Thompson-Robinson, but their OL is a mess and they lack playmakers who can stretch the field (11th in the Pac-12 in YPA).

Oughta be a great opportunity for Buffs win.

 

[Ralfie]

If you google "ucla football", the title bar underneath "UCLA Bruins Football" says "1st in Pac-12 South".
Pretty good standing for 0-3!

Speight still injured?

I hate onions so it’s all starting to make sense

Speight still injured?

I believe so.

 

[Highlander]

I did some googling on Speight. This past week, he was throwing with the other QBs, but not participating in roll out drills. No clue if he can get that back in shape in the next 11 days or not. He broke 3 vertebrae and had a spinal cord injury at Michigan. His dad wasn't happy with how it was handled at that time. Not sure if this is related or not.

Not sure either, but he did leave with what looked like some sort of back injury when he went out.

If CU can't run up the score, they should at least have our chip show UCLA's chip how to fire a tshirt cannon.

Is weed legal there? Because I'm pretty sure that's step one.

Earlier this evening, Michael Robinson, the father of UCLA Bruins freshman quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson, took to Twitter and, in his best impression of LaVar Ball, he completely called out Chip Kelly for the team’s woes.
Mr. Robinson blames “lousy coaching and play calling” for the fact that the Bruins are now 0-3. He goes on to write that Kelly’s coaching “is so bad that it demands closed practices.”

DTR's dad going public with Chip hate. This could get crazy.

Would be nice to beat fUCLA along the lines of 42-10

Anyone know what’s up with Shenault’s shoulder?

Sprained AC joint

Sprained AC joint

Ah, thanks. I’ve had those myself. They hurt like a MF.

 

[Alfred91]

I really like this post.

Mods, can we get Greg a "really like" button?

I propose it be called the "@Uncle Ken Really Like Button", though.

Mac said that he had a minor sprain in the shoulder and it shouldn't impact

What is the latest on Jaylon Jackson? This is a guy that I have been really looking forward to getting on the field. Given the way that the season has played out so far, I think his speed will help spread out the defense and take some of the focus off of Viska.

good question, eh @BuffStampede ?

the powder blue dumpster fire is potentially a great way to start conference play. get the big win at home; dispatch the desert mirage that is america's stripper U and then face the gauntlet of usc and uw. the schedule is very interesting.
