Less than two weeks before UCLA's season opener against Tennessee, Coach Rick Neuheisel ended the Bruins' quarterback battle when he named junior Kevin Craft as the team's starter before the afternoon practice Monday. Craft, who completed eight of 18 passes for 93 yards with three interceptions in UCLA's scrimmage Saturday, has been working exclusively with the Bruins' No. 1 unit, and Neuheisel said Craft has a better understanding of the offense than redshirt freshman Chris Forcier.

Let me get this sraight, the kid who went 8-18 for 93 yards and 3 INT's in their scrimmage is going to be the STARTER? Am I missing something here?

Chief, please return to the reservation and lay off the fire water and peyote.

I didn't realize 'ol Ricky could still play. From the photo it looks like his teammates are congratulating him. It was never a fair from the start!

Conscience has nothing to do with talking smack, Chief. This story was just a sitting duck. Rick should just suit-up for the Bruins.
