UCLA’s three worst losses of the 2015 season came with a common theme: The Bruins' rush defense was a liability.
After Nebraska bullied its way to 326 yards rushing in a 37-29 win in the Foster Farms Bowl to cap the season, coach Jim Mora admitted as much.
“We need to get bigger, obviously. We need to get stronger, obviously,” he said. “And those are things we’re working on in recruiting.
“We’re working to get bigger guys so when we get into these games against a team like Nebraska that’s a power team or a team like Stanford that’s a power team, we have more guys we can roll through there that have some girth to them and we don't get pushed around.
