The Magic Number = Four (173 clicks)
4 more losses and it will probably the clinch the end of Dorrell era in Westwood. I am not saying we have to root for or against our Bruins. I am just telling you what situation the worst coach in the history of UCLA football has put us all in after 4+ miserable years in Westwood.

Worse Case Scenario (151 clicks)
Since Training camp, the depth in our backfield has been paper thin. Markey got hurt last week against OSU and we only had Kalil Bell and a banged-up Chane Moline at running back. Cowan was hurt, then came back, and then was hurt again. So, of course, the worst case scenario happens on Saturday and Olson gets hurt. We end up with a third-string walk-on playing at the most important position on our offense. That's UCLA football! Just when you think things can't get any worse.

Nearly 83 years have passed since Notre Dame and its Four Horsemen traveled 2,000 miles to play Stanford in the granddaddy of all bowl games, but tonight, when the Irish return to the Rose Bowl, they will try to pull the mother of all upsets against UCLA.
