The other one that comes to mind was Mora's team facing Oregon at home and was the chance to get to the upper echelon of CFB and didn't pan out.
The interesting thing about this game is Ucla has gone into Oregon and beaten them, and regardless of what many in the media are saying about it, they outplayed Oregon. There were some breaks, but Ucla also left points off (or is it on?) the board and there were missed calls, so I think the victory was earned. It just wasn't clean.
Now is Ucla's home game against Wisconsin, who travels well. I'm not overly concerned about Ucla's backup QB at this point because Ucla is showing to have some talent to score some points. So it's the cliche, next man up, and let's see how he plays. And I have a feeling you are going to see some split time at QB.
The huge thing about this game is if Ucla can win this at home, there are two very winnable games following up. I wouldn't call this a must win game by any means, because Ucla is so far ahead of where anyone expected to be. However, this game could really set a tone for something big to happen for the future. I really hope for two things right now. 1. Hoping Ucla fans are really going to show up and 2. I hope Wisconsin isn't packing the East side of the stadium to look like a Wisconsin home game on TV. If Ucla can pull this off, I really want the media to be talking about Ucla in a positive light.
Posting an article about the QB's. Haven't seen anything regarding defensive injuries, so hopefully not too serious.
Fours Up.
