Tim Skipper took over the interim head coach role for the UCLA Bruins on September 14, 2025, following the firing of Deshaun Foster. This was at the time seen as a move that was temporary to finish the season until a head coach search could take place. There wasn’t much excitement around UCLA football. That continued as Skipper lost his debut against 17-14 versus Northwestern.
UCLA loses their last real hope of a win this year, 17-14 to Northwestern. They should be multiple TD underdogs in their remaining games this season. The Bruins have never had a winless season.
