Death, taxes, UCLA Football losing to Stanford. It has been nine straight losses and they have all been painful. Last season, the streak was almost broken but then… well, let’s not do this to ourselves.
This is a new year and UCLA Football comes into this one with a 2-1 record, an explosive offense and a whole host of questions on defense. Memphis was a gut check game for UCLA. The Tigers boasted a powerful attack led by a dangerous quarterback-wide receiver tandem and UCLA’s defensive depth was decimated by injuries. I wondered whether UCLA could overcome that and pull out the victory.
