Hard to believe it's been 13 years but football time marches on (kiffin and neu)... that was a good day for the Bruins and a heck of a game. I cherish those wins versus the Vols. They were hard fought.

I'm preaching to the choir but Saturday morning from the get-go is going to be intense for players and fans (wish it were us!). Tennessee can't come out tight. If so, that will play into Saban's hands. The Vols just need to play regardless of miscues. They'll happen but you're playing at home. I can only imagine if it gets loud... Good luck! Kick some ass!

Glad to see UCLA back to winning football! My favorite west coast team.

In the grand scheme of college football, what did that win get you? The Oklahoma, Penn State and Pitt games over the recent years have more significance.

Can't you guys let the guy have his moment? He feels like playing in Neyland is a special thing (and he's right).

He was trying to be nice...
Yeah, I welcome the good wishes of any college fans.
if we win, we will become Americas Team, at least for this season.
I think CBS will get big ratings for this game and I bet most viewers (except those with 💰 bets on Bama) will be pulling for us. People are tired of Bama. They are boring and Saban is unlikeable.

UCLA doesn't make the list of biggest games in Neyland in any time frame.
UCLA Tennessee has a rich history. Wish they would go back to playing every few years. Need to have Danny book a home and home . Maybe we will see you in postseason in near future.
My most memorable UCLA game was this one.
When the Heat Was On, Bruins Were Off : UCLA: A field temperature of 112 and a crowd of 97,117 take their toll in loss to Tennessee.
Hottest game I have ever been at. “Smokey suffered heatexhaustion in the 100+ degree temperatures and was listed on the Vols injury report until he returned later in the season. A kennel mate named "Woody" took over for him while he recovered”

Now days PAC 10 is a shell of itself. It is slowly becoming the old Big East 1 or 2 legitimate teams and the rest also rans.PAC was awesome back in the 60’s pre ESPN the 3 network days, when just 1 game a Saturday on CBS and Norte Dame on NBC. Now everyone gets a TV game but the PAC time zone has hurt recruiting, players get less clicks or in the case less face time on national TV.

This TN team is oozing with confidence, they will come out loose and play loose, it's Bama that I expect to be tight, after nearly losing to ATM at home ( a game they were expecting to be a blow out win) I suspect they are doubting themselves a bit.
