UCLA Football: Has The Spread Offense Salvaged The Bruins Season?

It is no doubt that the spread offense benefits this UCLA Football team. They have the right personnel to run the up-tempo offense, and it is resulting in more big plays for the Bruins.

UCLA found some success against Oregon State last week running the ball, as they ran for 174 yards which was good for 5.6 yards per carry.

It seems like a lifetime since the Bruins have gained more than 100 yards on the ground, which begs the question, is the running game being held back because of the lack of personnel?

At the beginning of the season, it seemed like a great idea for UCLA Head Coach Jim Mora to implement the pro-style offense to further develop quarterback Josh Rosen and his offense.
