Tonight, UCLA looks to get back on track after being embarassed by Arizona State last week at home.
On paper, the Bruins should be able to throttle the Wildcats, but Bruin fans are rightly concerned about the state of the UCLA defense. Which defensive team will show up? The one which held LSU to just 49 yards rushing? Or, the one which allowed Jayden Daniels to have his best game of the season last week?
Let’s look at the game time weather forecast.
Game Time Weather Forecast
Expect it to be about 75° degrees in Tucson at kickoff. The temperature should still be about 70° around halftime, but will slip into the upper 60s by the fourth quarter.

Interesting that the offense is checking in before the snap. Last year that worked well and I’m surprised we didn’t do more of that earlier this season.
Awesome! Now we need to win to make it a really great night!
Sweet!!

UCLA Fight! Fight! Fight!
Rod Gilmore just said that DTR has not been inconsistent. What team has he been watching?
LOL I was just about to comment on that too!
ESPN has to demonstrate its incompetence right off the bat.
Gilmore has always been an idiot.
He is in the right place.
He called him arguably one of the best QBs in the country. Who’s arguing that??
Jedd Fisch in a visor looks quite a bit like Jeff Goldblum
It's the glasses.
Let's see if we can get a 3 and out
Nope!
Did you mean right there or just tonight?
Hell, Gregg, I'll take whatever I can get!
Wow.. they're in the red zone with uptempo offense
Lets' go, D!!
Meanwhile, Utah is up 35-10 at the Mausoleum vs the trogans at the end of the 3rd
Go Utes!
I totally don't get that last AZ play call, but I'll take it!!
There goes the shutout.
If you were expecting a shutout, I need to know what team have YOU been watching?!?! LOL
It's somewhat disheartening that they moved the ball largely through the run that series. Gotta shut them down!
PI
Nice job by DTR chucking that pass after terrible snap
Why does this happen every game
Was thinking the same thing
Cuz we kee changing the center?
I thought Jon Gaines was doing well the first couple of games. Then it went downhill
Dimitri discussed that specifically in the Eye Test this week
That's a very legit question
One of the best incompletions ever
DTR has had plenty of practice with bad snaps.
Nice slide, DTR!! Love it!
Good to see the run game clicking early
Just was thinking that!
Looks like we're going for it on 4th
jfc we can't even get a play in
Now _that_ play call I like!!
TD!!!
aTm up on Bama 41-27 beginning of 4th
FACK! I mean 31-27 fat thumbs LOL
Oh, that's less nice than I thought
Aggies have been the aggressor all game; surprised that isn't the score tbh
I saw aTm had a pretty big lead at half. Bama is closing in on them
Go, Aggies!
Nice
Not a sack, but great hit on the QB
The QB with 5 INTs is dicing our secondary. smh.
We only rushed 3 yet their man was wide open coming back to the ball
Once again our D making a freshman QB Look like an Heisman candidate
117 yds to our 60 yds, they've dominated time of possession, yet we're up 7-6. So much for their up-tempo game.
DTR is off tonight
He is starting off pretty rough
The guys calling the game are saying it’s because he’s so beat up from last 2 games
They've never been people whose opinion I listen to
Wow we are just not good right now , this is the worst team in the conference and we look slow and sloppy
Definitely playing down to the competition
Geez, efense.
Akude down on the field-- hope he's okay!!
* Agude
I feel like I’m watching. Jr college game
Defense is non existent. Looks like they’re dancing around but really have no plan.
Tbe no stop D.
I didn’t think players were allowed to play with Nose jewelry?
Bruins #12?
Denied!!
What?…….. we made a stop? I’ll be damned!
Touchdown on the option!!
14-6, UCLA
Interesting that the offense is checking in before the snap. Last year that worked well and I’m surprised we didn’t do more of that earlier this season.
Alabama goes down!
On any Saturday!!!!
True that!
Wow!
aTm 41-bama 38 final FG final play
Would love to see Cincy in the Playoff
Definitely!!
Crap, they're gonna call targeting
Well, yay, I guess
There is the obligatory stupid penalty to extend a drive.
15 yd penalty better than 30+ yd gain I suppose
I was talking about the face mask when we got the stop
Too many penalities to keep up with
Seriously. By the time I type a comment there have been 2 more penalties!
Not sure I agree with that PI call
Let’s see if we can get a penalty on every play
I swear it's not really that difficult
Tricked em!
