 Final — UCLA 24, Washington 23November 7th, 2009, 3:49 pm by Adam Maya, staff writer since 2006UCLA football: Prince’s return “questionable”November 7th, 2009, 2:14 pm by Al Balderas, staff writerUCLA quarterback Kevin Prince is being examined for concussion symptoms and his return to Saturday’s game is questionable. Senior Kevin Craft was the quarterback for the Bruins’ first possession of the second half. UCLA football: Prince has ‘best week of practice’November 5th, 2009, 7:28 pm by Adam Maya, staff writer since 2006The old baseball adage is momentum is only as good as tomorrow’s starting pitcher. How about Saturday’s starting quarterback? UCLA quarterback Kevin Prince threw for 198 yards and two touchdowns in the fourth quarter while rallying the Bruins back from a 16-point deficit this past Saturday against Oregon State. Coach Rick Neuheisel said those final 12 minutes have already carried over. “I think he’s had his best week of practice,” Neuheisel said Thursday. “I think he’s raring to go. I’ll be disappointed if he doesn’t keep up that momentum.” UCLA football: Morrell Presley out, UW’s Jake Locker inNovember 5th, 2009, 7:25 pm by Adam Maya, staff writer since 2006**The Seattle Times reported Thursday Washington quarterback Jake Locker (thigh) will start Saturday against the Bruins. **Receiver Morrell Presley will not play because of a left shoulder sprain. Presley’s arm is in a sling after a collision with safety Dalton Hilliard during Wednesday’s practice. “It will probably keep him out for a week or so,” Coach Rick Neuheisel said. **Receiver Randall Carroll (groin) is doubtful.

Who will win Saturday?
UCLA Basketball: Bruins ‘lucky’ to beat ConcordiaNovember 4th, 2009, 10:41 pm by Adam Maya, staff writer since 2006UCLA men’s basketball coach Ben Howland took the podium and, before he was asked, said he knew all too well about Div. II Le Moyne’s shocking victory against Syracuse on Tuesday. The Bruins had just come dangerously close to besting that feat — by nearly losing to an NAIA team in their exhibition season-opener. UCLA guard Mustafa Abdul-Hamid hit a 3-pointer with 16 seconds remaining to give the Bruins a 62-61 victory against Concordia at Pauley Pavilion on Wednesday. “We were very lucky to win,” Howland said. The Bruins had not led in the second half until Abdul-Hamid’s shot. Concordia, which led by as many as eight, missed two desperation layups in the closing seconds. “Obviously we have a lot of work to do to compete at all in the Pac-10,” Howland said. UCLA basketball: Bruins edge Concordia, 62-61November 4th, 2009, 9:34 pm by Al Balderas, staff writerMustafa Abdul-Hamid scored a 3-point basket with 16.1 seconds remaining to lift the UCLA men’s basketball team to a 62-61 victory over Concordia in an exhibition game at Pauley Pavilion Wednesday night. Concordia, yes an NAIA school, led most of the way but were unable to hold off the Bruins’ comeback. Concordia got a few looks at the basket in the closing moments but failed to score. Terrence Worthy missed two shots in a final drive. The Bruins will play against Humboldt State in another exhibition game on Nov. 10. UCLA basketball: Concordia 31, UCLA 28 (halftime)November 4th, 2009, 8:36 pm by Al Balderas, staff writerJustin Johnson scored 17 first-half points to help Concordia build a 31-28 halftime lead over UCLA in an exhibition game at Pauley Pavilion on Wednesday night. The Bruins have been hampered by 2 of 8 shooting from the free throw line, as well as 10 turnovers. James Keefe and Drew Gordon lead the Bruins with nine points apiece. UCLA football: Brian Theriot tells his side of Facebook fiascoNovember 4th, 2009, 4:08 pm by Adam Maya, staff writer since 2006The comments began Saturday night. “The sad state of UCLA football. My gosh…..I have never seen more misuse of talent and a greater degree of offensive stagnancy on play calling and use of personnel….we have the players.” They continued Monday morning. “UCLA under Coach Rick (Neuheisel)….is horrible. Wayne Moses the running back coach is horrible. … UCLA is playing with great athletes but giving great athletes boys and girls club sets. Norm Chow and Wayne Moses are old school and gone. “I have decided to just show up and Coach at UCLA Spaulding Field today. I am going to just step out of the ‘parents’ section of the stands and coach the backfield.” The above remarks were posted on the Facebook page of Brian Theriot, the father of UCLA reserve fullback Trevor Theriot. Brian Theriot has since claimed his Facebook account was “hacked” and that he did not post the comments in question, which have since been removed. We spoke with Theriot on Wednesday. Here’s what he said: UCLA football: Injury updatesNovember 4th, 2009, 12:00 pm by Al Balderas, staff writerDefensive tackle Jerzy Siewierski said his right foot (plantar fasciitis) is feeling better and that he could conceivably return for the Bruins’ game against Arizona State on Nov. 21. Offensive lineman Eddie Williams (broken right ankle) has been spending time without his protective boot but there is no timetable on his return. Offensive lineman Stanley Hasiak will remain out of action indefinitely with what Neuheisel describes as a “personal issue”. |
