Coach's Perspective
Tim Skipper, UCLA's interim head coach, acknowledges the challenge ahead. "So, I started watching film on them yesterday," Skipper said. "So I just finished our game real quick from Maryland and then I moved on to Indiana, and I'm trying to identify a weakness. Like, it's crazy how disciplined they are. Coach Cignetti does a great job with those guys."
Skipper added, "They're very, very disciplined in all three phases. They're not giving up explosive plays. They're having a ton of explosive plays. They tackled very, very well. And then their ball handlers, I'm not just talking running backs, I'm talking receivers and the quarterback, they break a lot of tackles. They complement each phase of the game so well, it's not surprising that they're so good and the record is what they are and what they are ranked."
On Indiana's Offense
"Offensively for them, they're going to try to control the clock and things like that. They're not real tricky. They're going to run the ball and they have the most explosive runs in the Big Ten this season right now. So we're going to have to tackle. We're going to have to stop those guys."
On Indiana's Defense
"Defensively, they're, again, they're not tricky. They're going to play their zones. They're going to be four down. The thing they do more than anybody we played this year is they're going to give us simulated pressures. So, we're going to need to be ready for the simulated pressures. Have a plan for that."

Zach Osterman, an IU reporter, predicts a 35-20 victory for Indiana: "It's difficult to know what to make of UCLA, which started so badly it led to a spate of firings in Westwood. Now led by an interim head coach and two new coordinators, the Bruins have looked like a top-30 team the last three weeks. Nico Iamaleava's dual-threat ability has contributed significantly to that, which makes his health an important talking point this week. UCLA might be slowing down just a touch, following a narrow, comeback win at home against Maryland on Saturday. But Curt Cignetti has made it clear Indiana sees its opponent this weekend as 3-0 UCLA, not 3-4 UCLA. The Hoosiers expect a firm test."
