    Great win for our Bruins!!

    Why was the UCLA punt that seemed to have touched a Tennessee player, who was then tackled in the end zone, not counted as a safety? The ESPN announcer seemed to start to go there with his comment, but then stopped.

    Great win by our Bruins!!

    Jon – Great coverage, I really appreciate all the content that you get directly from the players and coaches!

    Why were the Bruins not credited with a safety after they tackled the Tennessee punt returner in the end zone after he appeared to have touched the ball around the 10yd line? The ESPN announcer seemed to start to talk about it and then stopped.

    rocky top is their big song. seems like it is a big tradition, as old as their football team, right? that would be .. no! wrong!! the song wasn’t even written until 1967 – their band didn’t even play it ’til 1972! with the amount of hype that thing gets, you would think it was more than some attempted commercial vehicle about a fictional spot in tennessee hills. and that is would at least be part of the university for 50 yrs. bogus tradition.

    I replayed that punt a couple of times. It was hard to see if he touched it, but it looked to me like he didn’t actually touch it before it went into the endzone. But it was really hard to see on the angle provided by ESPN.

    is it true Prince is out 3-4 weeks with a broken jaw?

  • jdoggbruin

    looks like kevin prince is out 3-4 weeks with fractured jaw.

  • lavsmousse

    Scout.com is reporting Prince has a broken jaw and will be out 3-4 weeks. Jon, any confirmation on this?

  • jdoggbruin

    i believe you have to have possession of the ball, not just touch it, for it to be a safety.

  • Keith

    The polls seems to have Tennessee with a higher ranking than UCLA. Am I reading it wrong?

    uclabruins.com reporting Prince out with fractured jaw…..3-4 weeks!

  • Bay Bruin

    So, let me get this straight. Prince breaks his jaw on that safety…but it wasn’t a helmet to helmet hit? SEC refs are amazing…

    Congrads on moving up to 30th in a top 25 poll. “I replayed that punt a couple of times. It was hard to see if he touched it, but it looked to me like he didn’t actually touch it before it went into the endzone. But it was really hard to see on the angle provided by ESPN.” is this how you bRuins spend your free time? Debating when they started sing rocky top? And you wonder why people make fun if you guys. Losers

    Anonymous 4:00. Is this how you spend your free time? On UCLA’s blog. Typical PUSC bandwagon fan. You are probably part of the 95% of PUSC’s fans that actually didn’t attend PUSC, let alone college. Loser. GO BRUINS!!!

    Let me get this straight. Notre Dame wins one game against inferior competition and moves into the 18th spot last week. UCLA wins on the road against a mighty SEC team, albeit in a down year and only gets moved up to 30th place. No wonder the polls are to often considered suspect.
