Well, football season’s over, and UCLA WR Jordan Lasley is largely to blame. Lasley put up 227 receiving yards in the Bears’ loss on Friday. That was well over half of the Bruins’ passing offense, and just under half of their total offense. If we had been merely adequate against Lasley, then the season wouldn’t be over.
Central to these struggles was Camryn Bynum, who’s otherwise been outstanding for us as a redshirt frosh. Up until now we haven’t had to do much to help Bynum, but that changed against Lasley, and our back-seven as a whole was unable to come to the rescue.
