THEY ALWAYS DIE IN THREES

Third time not the charm — #3 Josh Rosen throws 3 Interceptions leading to UCLA’s 3rd loss of the season

UCLA traveled to Arizona this weekend, and as a 2-point favorite, against a team that usually beat, they couldn’t get it done, losing 47-30, falling to 3-3 on the season.  Usually consistent Josh Rosen, who always throws for over 300 yards, managed only 219, and zero TD’s.  And it was his 3 INT’s that really killed him — 2 in the Red Zone, plus another one that resulted in a Pick 6.  He also got sacked 5 times.

The Bruin Defense was equally to blame, giving up 457 rushing yards, including 234 to the Quarterback.  About the only bright spot for UCLA was a rare 100-yard rushing effort:  Bolu Olorunfunmi gained 102 yards on only 10 carries including 2 TD’s.

Sorry for this truncated summary, and for no photos.  I am currently working on two (Internet) TV shows, and will be super-busy (probably) for the next 5 weeks.  I will most likely miss the next two home games as well.  I haven’t missed a home game in 49 years.  So it’s sad that the streak is coming to an end (unless I get fired or the shooting schedule changes radically), but it’s good to be working.  So carry on the torch for me until I return to root the Bruins on… to some more mediocrity?
