It is a bit of a harsh reality. The UCLA Football team has a defense that is performing below average and they are allowing teams to look very good when going up against them.
Last season, the Bruin defense had trouble with offenses due to injuries and an imbalance in time of possession (the defense was often on the field twice as long as the offense).
The Bruins have a few injuries (which is a slight problem), and the offense is spending more time on the field, so what is going on with the defense?
