UCLA lost 36-31 to Fresno State, but it didn’t keep Bruins coach Rick Neuheisel from grabbing the microphone and addressing the crowd afterward.
“We’re going to keep fighting,” Neuheisel said. “We’re going to come back next week and get you a win. I promise you we’re getting better.”
Of course, Neuheisel knows UCLA hosts Washington State next week, and the Cougars are not a very good team.
After losing at home to Oregon today by a 63-14 score, the Cougars are 1-4, including 0-2 in the Pac-10. They have been outscored 129-17 by Oregon and Cal, and 213-47 against Division I-A (or whatever it’s now called) teams. Their only win was against Portland State.
