The theme this week has been a renewed sense of hope and optimism surround UCLA Bruins football. I know Joe’s constant saying that “hope is not a strategy”, but in this case it is definitely a nice thing to see after a season of almost-uniformly dispiriting performances.

Now comes the hard part: sustaining that good feeling.
