Many took to social media following the news. Here are their reactions:

UCLA pulls out of the Holiday Bowl hours before kick-off.

Everyone knows where I stand on this, so sorry for being repetitive.

But it is so insulting to NC State players, coaches fans and who spent thousands of dollars to fly across country to allow this to happen. Embarrassing https://t.co/6RuaNDHtBq

UCLA just pulled out of the Holiday Bowl a few hours before kickoff. What in the world are we doing? No college athletes should be getting tested for covid. They’re all 100% fine. Most have no idea if they even have it. This is a total farce. Embarrassing. pic.twitter.com/tJDntAkuLB
