UCLA BRUINS suffer crushing defeat to #1 OHIO STATE, officially ending bowl hopes. Can the program compete in the brutal BIG TEN landscape?

ZACH ANDERSON-YOXSIMER breaks down UCLA's blowout loss in Columbus, analyzing the impact of starting quarterback NICO IAMALEAVA's concussion absence and backup LUKE DUNCAN's audition performance.

Anderson examines the program's depth issues compared to OHIO STATE BUCKEYES' roster strength, questions whether UCLA can sustain this level of competition year after year, and previews crucial rivalry matchups against WASHINGTON at the ROSE BOWL and USC at the COLISEUM where the BRUINS hope to play spoiler.
