UCLA Football: Dorian Thompson-Robinson is cool under (a lot of) pressure

Who is the UCLA football quarterback for the 2018 season? That question did not have answer a few weeks ago, but after the Bruins’ game against the Oklahoma Sooners, the answer might have revealed itself

Before last week’s season opener against Cincinnati, head coach Chip Kelly named Michigan grad transfer Wilton Speight the starting QB. Speight did an average job in a quarter and a half before having to leave the game with an injury.

Though he was expected to play, Thompson-Robinson was injected into the lineup earlier than expected. In that game, he looked a little shaky at times but had a few gleaming moments.
