Here’s how to watch

The Bruins are down this year, can the Gophers make it two wins in a row?

3 KEYS

• Take action against this offense – UCLA has the worst offense in the Big Ten and the Gopher defense needs to ensure that trend continues.
• Unleash Brosmer – UCLA’s pass defense is really bad, allowing 280 yards through the air per game. There should be open receivers, Brosmer should hit them.
• It is the world of Koi Perich – The door was opened. Watch Koi Perich go through it and show that he is one of the best defensive backs in the country.

OPPONENT PLAYERS TO WATCH

• #25 RB – TJ Harden – Leads team in rushing and receptions. He will often have the ball in his hands.
• #49 LB – Carson Schwesinger – He leads his team in tackles, with a margin of 21 tackles. But he also has a cute last name.

FORECAST

It was fun to beat USC at home, but you have to back that up with a win over UCLA. The Bruins are in year zero of their coaching change and could be the worst team in the Big Ten this year.

I hope we see a physical team ready to dominate the line of scrimmage and overwhelm the Bruins from the opening kickoff.

Minnesota – 31
UCLA – 17
