Despite losing record, UCLA could qualify for a bowl game with win over Cal
UCLA Coach Jim Mora directs his team against USC in the fourth quarter on Nov. 19. (Luis Sinco / Los Angeles Times) UCLA qualifying for a bowl game would be a four-step process with one vital prerequisite.
“First of all,” Bruins Coach Jim Mora said Monday, “we have to beat Cal.”
A victory over the Golden Bears on Saturday at Memorial Stadium in Berkeley would give UCLA a 5-7 record, potentially putting it in play for a sixth consecutive bowl appearance.
