Fixing spotty ground game crucial to UCLA's success

UCLA changed its offense this season with intentions of accentuating quarterback Josh Rosen’s strengths while reliably running the ball.

Going one for two in those departments has led to a .500 record.

The Bruins are 3-3 overall and 1-2 in the Pac-12 Conference halfway through the regular season, Rosen’s passing success largely offset by a ground game that has chugged along in first gear in the rare moments when it’s been able to shift out of neutral.

Heading into what’s essentially a must-win game against Washington State on Saturday night at Martin Stadium, UCLA Coach Jim Mora isn’t reversing course when it comes to the new offense.
