By Kerckhoff405 Since everyone has already chimed in about our performance against Stanford, I thought I'd give my two cents about the awesome Bruin Bash tailgate that took place right before the game.  I also brought my camera to take pictures of both the Bash and the game, but ended up taking more pics of t...

By ryebreadraz The #2 Bruins can beat anyone, that is anyone except for #1 Stanford. The Bruins lost their second game of the season on Saturday, their second to the Cardinal, as Stanford was able to overcome two goals by UCLA's Scott Davidson to beat the Bruins, 8-6, in Palo Alto. The following day, UCLA bea...

By ryebreadraz 1) Defensive Line Depth- Shutting down the Stanford running game is out of the question. You don't shut down Toby Gerhart and Co. You can slow them down, but that's all you're looking for. Even if you slow the run game down though, Stanford is going to have the ball for a solid amount of time and th...

By Nestor A trip down memory lane with UCLA quarterback Kevin Craft, who will face Stanford in Palo Alto on Saturday: The last time Craft faced Stanford, he took the Bruins on an 87-yard drive in the last two minutes, finishing with a game-winning touchdown pass.

By s. andrew While this isn't saying much, this is the deepest, best Stanford team since 2001. Then, as now, everything came back to a fantastic offensive line that set the tone for a dynamic running game that opened up the pass. Luck doesn't have the weapons Randy Fasani & Chris Lewis did, and if he di...

By Nestor More on Owusu later. Let's go back to Gerhart. Suffice to say our defensive coaches are working over time this week to figure out how to go straight after Gerhart and the Stanford offensive line. This is going to be a matchup of brute strength between two units (Stanford OL and Bruin DL) that hav...

By Nestor Well for the first time since 2001, Bruins can have a shot at it. However, they will get that shot IF AND ONLY IF they can execute against a tough, superbly coached Stanford Cardinal this upcoming Saturday in Palo Alto. Last week it was Washington, that was the toast of the Pac-10. This week it wi...

By Nestor Obviously many here will keep eye on Cal's game against Oregon. Although I picked Oregon to cover the spread, I get the sense that Best and the Cal offense will explode.
