The UCLA Bruins are currently riding a wave of emotions after starting the season 0-4. They have now won two straight games to put them at 2-4 with impressive wins over Penn State and Michigan State. The win versus the Nittany Lions triggered the beginning of the end for James Franklin at head coach. After their embarrassing loss to Northwestern, they relieved Franklin as head coach amid an 0-3 start in Big Ten play.
Franklin had an impressive run at Penn State with a 104-45 record, but it was often overshadowed by not being able to win the big game despite having the talent.
