Offense 14, Defense 9. It may not be the 13-9 score still talked about around Westwood -- UCLA's 2006 victory over USC -- but it did allow the Bruins' first and second offenses to claim victory in a scrimmage Saturday. Kevin Craft did nothing to lose his hold on the No. 1 quarterback spot. But consistency remains an issue. Craft threw six consecutive incomplete passes at one point, followed by seven consecutive completions. That included going four for four while directing a 68-yard touchdown drive against the second-string defensive line. Craft threw a four-yard touchdown pass to Marcus Everett. Craft was eight for 18 for 93 yards, but he also had three passes intercepted. Chris Forcier, meanwhile, was seven for 13 for 71 yards, but Neuheisel said the redshirt freshman still lacks a grasp of the offense.

Why isn't there at least minimum quality control on T & R? This is inconsequential drivel.

even I'm shocked to see so many UCLA football stories here lately. When did we become relevant?

Nothing wrong with Bruins' stories. But this "item" is completely meaningless and so useless. (A report about an intrasquad scrimmage? Jesus.)

UCLA is really in trouble this year. Not sure he is the right guy for the job, will have to see how he does against the mid-tier Pac teams.

You guys are EXTREMELY popular this year since you will be the team to give USC their 2nd season loss this year...we all know who will be the first team to beat them....and NO, I am not an OSU fan.
