  1. Great shot…. both teams wearing their home uniforms, as it should be….none of this all white Q-Tip look……..

  2. UCLA lost three straight ?
    Wow, losing three straight to your betters really sucks, doesn’t it?
    One might even say it’s “extra bitter”.

  3. “reeling back to Westwood” is a well worn but glorious cliche’ none-the-less !!! Thanks, gotroy22, for the report and the disheartening news for the trolls .

  4. Thank god the Wolf man keeps us current on Swaggy P’s nuptials and 39 year old football games. I’d hate to be distracted by things like how our golf team’s doing right now in the NCAA semis.

  5. I’m glad to see Dennis Thurman get the recognition he deserves. He was really smart and fierce. A really nice guy, too. He went to high school with my older sister; I went to high school with his younger brother — and Trojan DB — Junior Thurman, who was less talented but made up for it with his smarts and toughness. Good people.
