MAYBE WE DON’T ALL NEED SPRING GAMES

It’s the Pac-12 so no one really cares, but: UCLA did have a spring game, at least by what some definitions would qualify as a spring game. It ended in a 3-0 Blue team victory over the White side. That score is an honest one. There was no special scoring system, no series of baffling turnovers in the redzone, no weather delays. Nothing at all really happened here, with the offenses generating zero touchdowns in ten drives and the Bruins defense dominating every phase of the game.

It was nothing, but at least the portions were small. The game only took an hour, a bite-sized diet slice of spring ball compared to some of the longer, more dramatic productions by other programs.
