Part of the College Football Forecast at NBS Media went on, and they had a discussion with UCLA Wire writer Matt Wadleigh about the 2024 Bruins season.
After several questions, Wadleigh was asked at the end by Brock Vierra about what he predicted the Bruins record would be at the end of the season.
Here is Wadleigh’s response:
“UCLA is a giant wild card this year for a number of reasons. But, I’m going to give them a 6-6 record, which would be a success for Foster’s first year in the Big Ten. They get wins over Hawaii, Indiana, Minnesota, Fresno State, and two wins between some form of Nebraska, Rutgers, Iowa and Washington. Remember, the Huskies look much different than last season, so don’t count out the Bruins to steal a win as an underdog. The Iowa game is UCLA’s homecoming, so expect big vibes for that one.”
The Bruins went 8-5 last season, and 4-5 in the final season under Chip Kelly. Kelly then resigned in February with DeShaun Foster taking over.
