Here are five themes that are characterizing the UCLA Football team after the first five weeks in which the Bruins are 4-1 and ranked #20 in the country.
Five weeks into the season, the UCLA Football team has already shown us a lot that we can applaud, but they have also shown that they have a lot to work on this season.

Saturday, things got a bit interesting as the Arizona State Sun Devils exposed the Bruins, picking them apart for three quarters. Though the UCLA Football team was able to mount a comeback late in the game, enough damage had been done in the first three quarters to hold off a miraculous Bruin win.
