PROFILE

This is Brian Dohn's fifth season covering UCLA after spending 4 1/2 years covering the Dodgers for the Daily News and other Los Angeles Newspaper Group papers. He graduated from Rutgers, where the first college football game was played in 1869. Sure, the Scarlet Knights suffered for a long time, but now RU is doing what Jerseyans always thought was possible. Winning at Rutgers also proves winning is possible everywhere else in the nation, so underachieving coaches better be careful. Now, if only men's hoops can turn it around.

Blast from past

One of Washington's backup cornerbacks is Byron Davenport, which may not ring a bell. However, when he was at UCLA for two seasons, he was known as Byron Velega. He left UCLA, had a bunch of family issues that led to him changing his name, and went to Washington. He has been limited to four plays this season because of a hamstring injury, but is expected to play, if needed, against UCLA. He backs up freshman Vonzell McDowell.
