Oddshark.com predicts the UCLA Football team will win more games than in 2016, but it still lower than expectations.

Everyone invested in the UCLA Football program wants to move on and forget about the 4-8 record from 2016.

In a season that made a disastrous change from spread to power on offense, had no run game and had their starting quarterback out for the season with a shoulder injury six games in, Bruins everywhere want to move on.

That could very well happen in 2017 as Oddshark.com has given the UCLA Football team an over/under of 6.0 wins in 2017.

More from Go Joe Bruin

The good news is, his is an improvement from 2016. The bad news is, if UCLA only wins six games, that could be bad news for Head Coach Jim Mora.

It seems that many football pundits agree that UCLA should improve, but it will be minimal. A few months ago, Go Joe Bruin writer Ashley Tellier predicted an improvement, but only had the Bruins winning 7 games.

Once again, improvement, but is it enough to turn down the flames on Mora’s hot seat?

The Bruins look to turn around an offense that was abysmal last season. Mora hired former Michigan QB Coach Jedd Fisch as the new offensive coordinator try and make that happen.

Along with new receivers, running backs and offensive line coaches, Fisch looks to do what former OC Kennedy Polamalu could not and get the offense moving. But will it be enough to keep Mora in Westwood at least one more year? We find out next season.
