UCLA Football Begins Preparation for Oklahoma Sooners

Yesterday might have been a holiday for most Americans, but the UCLA Bruins football team was back to work after losing Saturday’s opener to Cincinnati.

Before practice this morning, UCLA head coach met with the media and, from listening to his answers, it sounds like he remains focused on getting the team to where it needs to be.

The first thing he addressed was the status of starting UCLA quarterback Wilton Speight. Kelly indicated that he is “still banged up a little bit, but it is nothing serious.”

“It’s gonna be a year of firsts for a lot of these guys, because none of them have played before,” Kelly said, speaking about the team’s upcoming road trip to Oklahoma.
