Jim Mora wants a change in mentality, not scheme, at UCLA
LOS ANGELES -- In 2000 and 2001, UCLA swept Alabama in a home-and-home series. In 2000, the Crimson Tide were ranked No. 3 but couldn't stop running back DeShaun Foster. In 2001, the Bruins' victory in Tuscaloosa was keyed by a goal-line stand.
UCLA was the more physical team, and that wasn't up for debate.
"They dominated us on both sides of the line of scrimmage," then-Alabama coach Mike DuBose said after Foster piled up 187 yards and three scores in Pasadena in 2000.
