UCLA students soon will be encouraged to get behind their opponent.
Don’t expect them to be supportive in the least.
At least 1,000 Bruins students will be placed in the front rows of four sections directly behind the visiting team at the Rose Bowl next season as part of a seating reconfiguration designed to enhance the team’s home-field advantage, UCLA announced Wednesday.
School officials said this will make UCLA the only Big Ten team to have its students sitting directly behind the opponent.
“I am very excited that our student section is being moved,” UCLA quarterback Ethan Garbers said.
