How important is tonight’s game?
In the big picture, I don’t think it means as much as it could. If UCLA breaks Stanford’s winning streak, it really won’t be that big of a deal because Stanford isn’t playing like a very good football team right now. But, if UCLA loses again to the Cardinal, the game could become a very big deal.
The Bruins aren’t actually playing very good football either. Well, they have been on offense, but the defense has been atrocious in all three games. They’ve had to rely on the offense saving the day twice and, while the offense played reasonably well last week, it wasn’t to get past Memphis.
