UCLA gets pair of Friday night FOX games

Friday night lights!

The UCLA Bruins Big Ten Conference move will change a lot of things, including some scheduling tidbits. This past week, the FOX Friday night slate was released.

In it, the UCLA Bruins got a pair of Friday night games. The first is November 8 against Iowa at the Rose Bowl and November 15 against Washington on the road, per the official release.

In the first altered date, the Bruins now welcome last season’s Big Ten runner-up Iowa to Rose Bowl Stadium for a 6 p.m. PT showdown on Friday, Nov. 8. The following week also has a change, as UCLA is now slated to visit league foe and 2023 national runner-up Washington’s Husky Stadium at 6 p.m. PT on Friday, Nov. 15. FOX will provide television coverage of both contests.

UCLA won’t have as many eyeballs on them nationally as before with DeShaun Foster in his first year as head coach. Still, the Big Ten has a ton of focus on them.
