Keep (Bowl) Hope Alive: Resilient UCLA Beats Washington In A Heart Pounding Win (86 clicks)
More photos ? by Francis Specker - AP The next JJ? Another spectacular day for Nelson Rosario, who led UCLA with 7 catches for 111 yards in a huge win over Washington Browse more photos ? Well it's over. The head scratching, heart breaking, suffocating, and frustrating losing streak is over. Bruins, thanks to a heart stopping interception from Rahim Moore (aided in part by Sheldon Price's great effort) pulled out a huge win over Washington Huskies, and kept their post-season hopes alive. Bruins win by a score of 24-23. Here is the box score. Lot of things didn't go our way today. We turned the ball over 5 times. We lost our starting QB (who was on fire until he went out) to an injury in the first half. Our bend don't break defense looked as if it was going to break our hearts again. However, our boys just kept fighting and clawing throughout the whole game and got us a huge win. Rahim Moore clinched the game. Terrence Austin had the spectacular TD catch which gave us life in the second half. Okay it is debatable whether it was a catch but prior to that play we got screwed in Franklin's fumble call, which led to a Husky TD. So they can't really complain. However, the game ball today IMHO goes to the Bruin OL, that did a spectacular job of providing both of our QBs time, who picked apart the Husky defense for 370 passing yards. Of course we still have lot of issues with our team. While Terrence Austin had some great catches he cost us with a fumble. We also suffered from some really dumb penalties, which included costly mistakes from seniors such as Logal Paulsen. Still what I really like is how our boys haven't quit. They keep fighting and fighting. They are resilience and that speaks volumes in terms how they feel about CRN's leadership at UCLA. Let's hope Kevin Prince is all right. He was being treated for concussion like syndrome after that hit. He looked ok in the sidelines and seemed completely plugged into the game. Let's hope he can come back. Meanwhile, despite couple of tough throws and bad snap, I though Craft did a great job of managing the game. Other notable mentions from today are Nelson Rosario, Derick Coleman, Milton Knox, Brian Price and Akeem Ayers. Rosario has now emerged as the go to guy among our receiving corps. Coleman was just solid and Knox showed how he can be a special player. On the defensive side Price and Ayers did their part in making Locker uncomfortable. We will have lot more reflecting on this game. Hopefully we can build on the resiliencey we showed today (and actually through the whole season) and get a different kind of streak going for rest of this season. Oh, a quick note to the coaching staff. Those jerseys and gold heldmets are pretty freaking sweet. Can we stick with them for rest of the season? Fire away with your post game thoughts (and use the fanposts if you want to throw up extensive reflections and analysis). Let's get the homecoming party started. GO BRUINS.

BN Gameday Roundup: "Dying To Win" (48 clicks)
Let's start with CRN's perspective to set up this game day: "Our guys are dying to win," Neuheisel said. "A week or so ago I talked about you can't get in that comfort zone or that protective cocoon of, `I'm not going to let this pain get to me. It's OK. I'm just going to keep doing my best.'

FLASHBACK To 1992: A Familiar November 7th For Rick Neuheisel? (67 clicks)
Let me share a little bit of history. Understandably lot of people are down about an 0-5 record in the Pac-10 conference. We have already heard the stat about how the last time UCLA lost 5 conference games in a row was in 2003. However, did you know that this is not the first time Rick Neuheisel has found himself in this kind of situation as member of the UCLA coaching staff?

Time To Rally Behind Our Team (81 clicks)
Earlier in the week the Daily Bruin attacked Rick Neuheisel in just 19 games into his tenure in Westwood in an article entitled "Neuheisel's Team Falling Apart." I found that kind of funny for a newspaper that was too busy licking Steve Lavin's boots, assaulting Karl Dorrell's critics, and patherically celebrating close loss to Southern Cal all those years.

Just got back into town, and here's some extras from yesterday... Norm Chow on the offense being drastically better in the second half: "You always make halftime adjustments and they always do things to you you're not expecting. They blitzed us a lot more on second down. People don't see that." Tony Dye on what ails the defense: "Big plays, man - we give up a deep ball, we drop a pick. Here and there, things are killing us.
