UCLA Bruins in Super Bowl LIII
Matthew Slater is the only former Bruin who will take the field in today’s game, but the Rams will have two former UCLA coaches on their sideline.This year’s Super Bowl may present a dilemma for Bruin fans. For many years, the Los Angeles area hasn’t had a team to root for, let alone a Super Bowl contender. Football fans could at least root for the team that had a fellow Bruin and, in some cases, pick their favorite Bruin from a field of choices.
This year, the New England Patriots are the only team playing with a former Bruin player on the active roster. That, of course, is special teams captain Matthew Slater.
