What good is a Louis Vuitton quarterback if his handles keep falling off?
PASADENA, CALIFORNIA – OCTOBER 28: UCLA Bruins defensive lineman Laiatu Latu hits Colorado Buffaloes quarterback Shedeur Sanders during the second half as the Colorado Buffaloes lost 16 to 28 to the UCLA Bruins at Rose Bowl Stadium on October 28, 2023 in Pasadena, California.
“The big picture? You go get new linemen,” Coach Prime replied. “That’s the picture. And I’m gonna paint it perfectly.”During the first three quarters, in which the Buffs either led or were within a score of the offensively-challenged Bruins, CU ran 20 first-down plays. Only two were designed runs. Another two became rush plays on Shedeur scrambles — he netted 13 yards on one jaunt, one yard on another — while two more were sacks.
Look, we get Prime’s reluctance. To a point. Nationally, only Baylor , Arkansas and BYU entered last weekend averaging fewer yards per first-down run than CU’s 2.83. The Buffs were 105th in second-down rush attempts and 125th in average yards per second-down carry .The Buffs headed into UCLA tied for 99th nationally in rush attempts on third down and 3 yards or fewer while converting on 13 of them .
The Bruins are Iowa with a spray tan. UCLA’s already adopted a Big Ten West look a year before they join that league: Iffy quarterbacking, killer pass rush, punt to win. It was a sneak preview of that Utah matchup to come on Thanksgiving weekend. In all the wrong, physical, painful ways. Shedeur has the goods to carry a lot of things by himself. Just not a program. Not up this hill. Not in this conference.
