Welcome to Bruins Nation’s opponent preview series for the UCLA Bruins 2018 football season! Each week, we will be taking a look at an upcoming opponent this year, examine their strengths and weaknesses, and make a bold prediction regarding the outcome.
This week, we take a look at UCLA’s Week 8 opponent: the Arizona Wildcats.
What a weird year for the Wildcats.
First, the team got off to a rough start, going 2-2 to start the year and looking like the same Arizona team of years past: good enough on offense, but not particularly better than a quality opponent, and with an absolute sieve of a defense.
