In Episode 49 of the What’s Bruin Podcast, hosts Bill Shirley, Jake Merrifield and I talk about your UCLA Bruins getting into the Valero Alamo Bowl on January 2, 2015 against the Kansas State Wildcats. Some of us are excited, one of us is not. As we delve into the post-New Year’s match-up, we try to give that lone sole some sense of what this bowl means in the grand scheme of UCLA football. Is it good, bad or ugly? You decide!
With that, we also get into the circus that was the College Football Playoff selection of the top four teams and the four other major bowls. Did the committee make the right call with Oregon, Alabama, Ohio State and Florida State? Additionally, even though it is not UCLA representing the Pac-12, are you all in for Oregon that is?
We then finish up football talk with some post-season awards. Who got All-Pac-12 mentions and were they accurate? And which Bruin was surprised with his award by a football legend? LISTEN NOW! But before you do, finish reading this summary.
We then continue the podcast with some basketball talk and the concnesus is, UCLA basketball is working on improvements, but might not yet be at that level to beat a few of the Bruin’s opponents coming up like Gonzaga and Kentucky.
We then finish up some of the best news of all…
