    Bill Seals, Sports Reporter|Oct 12, 2023

They scored just 17 points and had 216 yards of offense in losing to the Bruins,...

    Mykell Mathieu, Sports Reporter|Oct 5, 2023

    Fred Altieri, Sports Reporter|Oct 5, 2023

    “This is a very humbling league and every week takes great focus and concentration to come away with a win.” In 2017, Sean McVay uttered these words more than once during his rookie season as head coach of the Los Angeles Rams.

Seven years later his team suffered a 19-16 loss to the slow-starting Cincinnati Bengals on Monday Night Football at Paycor Stadium, who were sporting their white tiger-striped helmets for only the third time. The Rams (1-2) have now lost...

    Mykell Mathieu, Sports Reporter|Oct 5, 2023

    UCLA went into last Saturday’s matchup with a chance to prove they will be a team to be that can compete for a Pac-12 football championship. The defense showed up but the offense forgot its invitation to the party as the 3-1 Bruins suffered their first defeat of the year, 14-7 against 4-0 Utah. The opening play of the game for the Bruins’ offense would foreshadow how the rest of the game would look. Freshman quarterback Dante Moore dropped back for his first attempt of the game and telegraphed a pass to the left. A Utah defender jumped in fro...

    Steve Finley, Sports Editor|Oct 5, 2023

    Fred Altieri, Sports Reporter|Oct 5, 2023

Los Angeles lost its ninth consecutive regular season game to the Niners, 30-23, before 74,742 fans at SoFi Stadium, seemingly half dressed in red 49er gear.
