ucla vs tennessee...


Wow! The kid(Kevin Craft) throws 4 interceptions in the first half, one which is returned for a TD and comes back in the second half to lead the Bruins to a victory.

Well, I'm a quasi UCLA fan because of new offensive coordinator Norm Chow and Rick Neuheisel did coach @ my schools in Seattle- University of Washington and Rainier Beach High School. I'm happy Neuheisel is getting a second chance. And my namesake needs to redeem himself after getting fired from the Tennessee Titans. It's ironic that Chow first victory back in the college ranks is against Tennessee. Oh, and my niece is a graduate of UCLA.

I must give props to defense coordinator DeWayne Walker's defense. I was also impressed with tight end Ryan Moya; especially after sitting out last season for personal reasons. New offensive line coach Bob Palcic whose previous job was @ Wisconsin where he developed Outland Trophy Winner and consensus All-America left tackle Joe Thomas is also good addition to Neuheisel's coaching staff.

Tennessee may have to rethink the way they open the season- last year was a loss @ CAL and this year getting beat by the Bruins in the Rose Bowl...

Some interesting tidbits about Kevin Craft. His father was the head coach of San Diego State. Kevin played one season with SDSU. I thought his name sounded familiar... Craft played for Mt. San Antonio College last season and threw for over 4000 years and his father was his offensive coordinator. His father Tom Craft is well known as a quarterback guru who developed his reputation @ Palomar College.
