It’s on to Week Four as the UCLA Bruins hit the road to open Pac-12 action today against the Colorado Buffaloes.
The Buffaloes are so bad that, if UCLA wins, Karl Dorrell might not have a job come Monday. The fans in Boulder are getting restless. And, if CU AD Rick George doesn’t pull the plug, I hear that the domain DumpDorrell.com can be had for cheap. It would be pretty hilarious if version 2.0 of the site did pop-up soon. It’s possible since the domain was most recently registered in January.
Game Time Weather Forecast
The Bruins are on the road for the first time this season.
Today in Boulder, expect it to be a cool 73° and sunny at kickoff. That’s about as good as you can expect when visiting Colorado. Look for the temperature to climb throughout the game to about 76° at halftime and to about 78° by the end of the game.

Listen to the Game With TMB!
TuneIn.com now has UCLA’s football games listed as “premium” content. So, rather than using TuneIn, you can just listen through the official website like we have done with the small sports for a long time in order to listen to Josh Lewin and Matt Stevens call today’s game instead of UC Berkeley grad Roxy Bernstein and Lincoln Kennedy. So, it’s probably worth it to turn the sound off. If you do prefer UCLA’s radio team, be sure to right-click on it so that you can open up another tab and have it going while you chat in the comments below. Listen to today’s game online.

I gotta say, our secondary has stepped us this series. Several plays have McCown running n looking for someone to throw to and finding no one. Let's go!!
I could do with less DTR keepers. This is not the team we need to run them against, and we don't wanna hurt DTR. We've run a few options, now let's pound it with Charbonnet.
Not only are we paper thin on D but they just can’t seem to get thier stuff together , between penalties and blown assignments, jeez man this is the 4th game of season. Get it together!
Hey Bruin fam. Checking in from sec 103 on a perfect day. Always good to see our Bruins in person, tho this game is sort of like pulling teeth. Refs are over involved. Didn’t love that 4th down play call but offense looks great. Defense…umm. . Go Bruins!
think O is the key to this game. Reminds me of certain NFL teams who knew their D was suspect but knew they would win based upon their offensive strength :-)
Garbers in next. We have 2nd team OL?
Our coaching wants to make Buffs defense look acceptable?
And step up recruiting
It has been a problem in every game. Really frustrating
Yeah, my thoughts as well
That would be awesome
200 sounds like a lot, but easily will break 100. Already has 53 yds.
Yeah, with Keegan getting touches, 200 not gonna happen....
U
C!
L!
A!
I'm sure everyone heard by now that CO starting their freshman QB against us today.
Let's go, Defense!!
I wonder why no one picked up the man in motion in that last play. Easy first down
Muasau!
O line with little penetration, DBs giving too much cushion... I've seen this movie before
Oops!! *D line I meant
Toia down on the ground hurt after that last play :-(
An injury on defense we can't afford. Very thin on personnel there.
Charbonnet looked good on that run. Hope he's 100%
28 yd gain for DTR on that run!
DTR perfect placement on that pass for TD!
Woo hoo! Touchdown Bruins!
Only took us 2.5 minutes to score :-) That bodes well for us this game.
OK, that played out as expected. Now for some D!
That was not targeting.
That was a legit hit on McCown.
Totally disagree with that call. -_-
Yeah, not targeting, but the helmet coming off made it look dramatic
For the record I agree with all of the above. Totally bogus call and costly for us.
I gotta say, our secondary has stepped us this series. Several plays have McCown running n looking for someone to throw to and finding no one. Let's go!!
Muasau!!
This Sykes kid stepping up this game, making some catches!
Bobo with a beautiful catch!
Charbonnet 35 yards, takes it to the house!
14-0 end of first, UCLA!
Did I stutter? Wow!
O-Line today opening up holes and keeping DTR upright.
2nd time CO receiver wide open but dropped the ball. We gotta be a lil better...
Sadly, that was a great 42 yd pass by McCown and our DB just got beat, coming out of the break.
OMG can we please f'n tackle??
At least 4 missed tackles on that run in the red zone.
Please yes a tackle. And stop the second effort.
I think our Defense is going to be seriously exposed when we play Washington
Indeed. The defense a very real weakness and Washington is playing really well. Could be a brutal game.
Yeah, nothing we've seen today (or before!) should make U Dub concerned...
3rd and goal. Let's go, D!!!
Coverage sack! Nice!!
I could do with less DTR keepers. This is not the team we need to run them against, and we don't wanna hurt DTR. We've run a few options, now let's pound it with Charbonnet.
Nice moves, Kaz!
Nice run, son.
Charbonnet TD!!
We've had the ball for 7.5 minutes, 21 points. They've had it for 13.5 minutes, 3 points. We've scored a TD every possession. This is domination.
Hit McCown low on that pass, I think
Yup! Not the first time, either smdh
Yeah he did
Looks like our D gonna keep the Buffs in this game -_-
Can’t get complacent
Shit. TD McCown on the bootleg.
Hard not to root for him! Josh mcCowns kid
He's lucky he's playing UCLA D for his first game outta high school
LOLYup
Nothing like giving the home team momentum going into halftime smdh
At least we get the ball beginning of the second.
^^^All true!
Not only are we paper thin on D but they just can’t seem to get thier stuff together , between penalties and blown assignments, jeez man this is the 4th game of season. Get it together!

Glad you're not sweltering over there, Gregg! Love that you're repping the four letters over in Colorado :-) Go, Bruins!!
47 yards given up on penalties. Ugh. Thanks for checking in, Gregg., and for your insight on the officiating. Go Bruins!
Let's go, Bruins!!
What a grab by Cam Brown!
Beautiful jump ball :-)
In traffic!
46 yd run, Charbonnet takes it to the house yet again!!
Charbonnet has 99 yds now, so getting closer to your 200 yds, Bruin Gold!
While I love the quick score, the D back out on the field makes me nervous...
think O is the key to this game. Reminds me of certain NFL teams who knew their D was suspect but knew they would win based upon their offensive strength :-)
Wow, Wake Forest damn near beat Clemson,but just lost in 2OT, 51-45, playing at home.
The Deacons bringing it!
