Hello everyone, and welcome to the first “Eye Test” of the 2018 season (and, coincidentally, the first “Eye Test” of the Chip Kelly era). For those of you reading this series for the first time, the “Eye Test” is a way for us to break down each football game played by the UCLA Bruins to determine how the team performed on an individual and team-wide level, while getting into the nitty-gritty details that lead to each result.
The “Eye Test” is broken down into 5 categories: Offense, Defense, Special Teams, Coaching, and Discipline/Execution. Each category is usually broken down even further, depending on my discretion (aka how much do I want to write about something).
