UCLA Football has a strong tradition that centers around their home stadium, the Rose Bowl. Everyone knows the Rose Bowl, and that is where the Bruins have been playing their home games since it was constructed in 1928. UCLA Football Tickets are always hard to get - UCLA Students, Alumni, and fans in Los Angeles love to attend UCLA Football games, especially when they play their heated rival from across town - the USC Trojans. Just Great Tickets is the place for your UCLA Football Tickets.
Lately, it's been a tough run for the UCLA Bruins. Not only has the team's performance been sub-standard (for UCLA), they have played in the shadow of the USC Trojans, who have been a national powerhouse over the past decade. But UCLA has made a move - hiring Rick Neuheisel as head coach. Neuheisel is a former UCLA quarterback who led the Bruins to a 45-9 victory over 4th-ranked (& heavily-favored) Illinois in the 1984 Rose Bowl, in which he was named the most valuable player. UCLA Tickets will be in demand as Neuheisel comes back to Westwood with hopes of resurrecting the UCLA teams of the past, and competing for national championships.
The UCLA Bruins have only one national championship in their long and storied history. The 1954 Bruins finished the season 9-0 and were ranked #1 in the UPI Poll. All of Los Angeles was buying UCLA Football Tickets. The 1954 team set numerous school records. It led the nation in scoring offense at 40.8 points per game, as well as scoring defense with a miraculous 4.4 point against average. Jack Ellena, Jim Salsbury, Bob Davenport and PrimoVillanueva all earned first-team All-America honors. Eight other Bruins were named All-America honorable mention, including Sam Boghosian, who earnedAcademic All-America acclaim and was first-team All-Coast.
Despite no national championships in over 50 years, UCLA football has had many strong teams and spectacular players over the last half-century, which is the reason why UCLA Football Tickets are in demand. In 1975, the Bruins were 9-2 and finished the season with a Rose Bowl win and a #5 AP and UPI ranking. In the 1980s and 1990's, during the tenure of Terry Donahue, the Bruins compiled a 151-74-8 record, including 13 bowl games and an NCAA record eight straight bowl wins. The program has produced 28 first round draft picks, 30 consensus All-Americans, and multiple major award winners.
Fans clamor for UCLA Football Tickets because they know that on any given Saturday, they will be catching a glimpse of future professional ballplayers, and maybe even a Hall-of-Famer or two. Pro Football Hall-of-Famers Bob Waterfield, Jimmy Johnson, Tom Fears and Troy Aikman all wore the Blue and Gold of the Bruins - not to mention current NFLer Johnathan Ogden, a sure fire bet for enshrinement in Canton. Few people also know that Jackie Robinson, before his days with the Brookyln Dodgers, played halfback for the UCLA Football team in the late 1930s and early 1940s.
UCLA is back on the map. A new coach and a new crop of recruits should prove to make UCLA a national power once again. UCLA Football Tickets will be in high demand, and Just Great Tickets is your place for all of your UCLA Football Ticket needs.
