The Washington State Cougars host the UCLA Bruins on Saturday night in Pullman (7:30 pm, ESPN) with each program existing on very different planes. WSU is 3-0, ranked No. 19, and once again looking like a team that will contend for the conference. UCLA is 0-3 and struggling to improve under a coach in his second year with the program.
That coach is Chip Kelly, who once dominated the Pac-12 and made Oregon a nationally relevant program. Things have not gone so well at UCLA, as he is off to a 3-12 start—the worst for a head coach through the first 15 games at the school in nearly a century.
