What a weird game.
The UCLA Bruins raced out to an early lead and looked like they would cruise to another easy victory. Then things began to go sideways. Arizona got pressure defensively. The Wildcats’ running game got going. Dorian Thompson-Robinson got knocked out of the game. Wilton Speight looked rusty. The UCLA defense brought back their classic third quarter collapse.
And yet UCLA still won.
I’m still not sure what I watched. I left the Rose Bowl confused. I watched my recording of it Sunday night and ended it confused.
