UCLA Football: Defense Looks to “Tackle, Tackle, Tackle”

Let’s quickly catch up with some of the UCLA Bruins’ video interviews from this week. We’ll start with Chip Kelly’s interview from Wednesday morning before practice.

In his interview, Chip Kelly made it clear that Austin Burton will start if Dorian Thompson-Robinson is not able to play tonight due to the injury he suffered last week against Arizona.

In comparing Burton to Thompson-Robinson, Kelly said, “They both throw a nice catchable football.” That almost concerns me having watched Thompson-Robinson throw plenty of uncatchable balls in the early part of the season, but Kelly simply isn’t about to throw either of his quarterbacks under the bus.
