UCLA Football: What Film Review Of SDSU Game Revealed To Chip Kelly

Can it inform the team's approach to Utah today?

Although the emergence of true freshman Dante Moore as the UCLA Bruins' starting quarterback may have been fans' main takeaway from the club's 35-10 blowout of San Diego State University in Week 2, Chip Kelly had a different one.

Per Tracy Pierson of Bruin Report Online, the sixth-year UCLA head coach believed that the club's endearing defense moxie helped propel it to victory, in part.

"I think one of the biggest things was our resiliency as a team," Kelly opined. "You talk about being put in adverse situations, for our defense to go on the field with the ball on the half-yard line, and not only prevent points but come up with a turnover."

"The good part about it is the result is the offense went down the field and scored, taking advantage of the turnover that our defense created."

"I think our [linebacker] depth has shown through the other day, guys like JonJon Vaughns."

The Bruins' defense looked similarly excellent during the club's 59-7 victory over the North Carolina Central College Eagles Week 3 walkover.

So the question now becomes... how sustainable is it, really? Can UCLA's Bruins keep this up today, against the nationally-ranked Utah Utes?
