What I worry about more than all the analysis of this game would be, are the Bruins going to show up after their big win over U$C? Over the years, Kelly’s teams have demonstrated a big let down. And after that phenomenal play by the defense last week, I can only guess the worse will happen. Let’s hope I’m wrong.
I think the UCLA defense will show up and that will be the key. The offense may regress a little because Kelly directly controls them, but Lynn controls that defense and I think he will have them ready. UCLA should win this game easily; however, they don't really need this game, perhaps it gets them in a better crap bowl, but Cal needs this game badly to become bowl eligible. So, Cal has way more the play for, which will make the game closer than it should be. So, do we get another "Arizona St" or do we even get a half of a "SUC", not sure, but again, UCLA should win this game handily even if The Chipster (OG) is still the head coach.

Cal is the only FBS college football team I can think of that can score 49 points and still lose the game.
It appears to me the Kelly situation will remain until we get a new Chancellor.
