Norm Chow was just hired as UCLA's offensive coordinator, giving the Bruins two former Cougar coaches on their staff.
Certainly BYU has to be concerned with DeWayne Walker as DC, since he helped hold BYU to 17 points in each of the two meetings in 2007. Maybe Chow can actually turn Ben Olson into a respectable college quarterback. He can use the extra help.
UCLA should be pretty good offensively in 2008 but Walker has to replace some key players on defense. BYU fans should be glad BYU-UCLA isn't the 2008 season opener. That would give Chow and Walker all winter, spring and summer to get ready. As it is, UCLA plays Tennessee the week before it comes to Provo.That'll keep them busy.
Should be fun to watch - and write about - next fall. |
