It is not that bad. I mean, it could be better, but for the most part, the UCLA Football run defense is holding their own.

Yes, UCLA has had issues with the run defense during Defensive Coordinator Tom Bradley’s tenure, but it’s nothing to freak out about, especially so early in the season.
The thing most Bruin fans would like to see is more pressure on the quarterback and more blitzes, which could results in sacks and tackles for losses. Clearly, that’s a good thing for a defense to have, but it is not necessary, especially when you’re limiting your opponent’s yards and, more importantly, points.
