UCLA Football Falls to 0-3 After Stunning 35-10 Loss to New Mexico, QB Clarkson Suspended Amid Off-Field Trouble

🏈 Current Record & Recent Games

UCLA is 0-3 to date. 

New Mexico defeated the Bruins 35 to 10 at the Rose Bowl.

UCLA was a 15.5-point favorite in that loss, but they got blown out.

Problems & Weaknesses

Discipline concerns: The team has drawn numerous fines (e.g. 13 during the New Mexico game, 116 yards in total).

Offense and defence not performing: UCLA has not taken a lead yet in the season and the offence has appeared disorganised.

Under the microscope: Scores of analysts feel that head coach DeShaun Foster is getting outcoached at the right time.

Other News

The team has indefinitely suspended a backup QB Pierce Clarkson after he was arrested on the charge of assault with a deadly weapon. He was bonded on US$30,000; he appears in court on October 3.

The current starting QB is Nico Iamaleava, who is a high-profile transfer who transferred to Tennessee. He had big expectations but the performance has not been up to the hype.
