Go U Northwestern




Northwestern (7-4) tries to take down UCLA (9-2) in today's Sun Bowl (er, Vitalis Sun Bowl -- shout out to men's hair care!)

The old alma mater has a good shot: Although UCLA is favored by 3 points, NU is No. 8 in the country when it comes to total offense. Northwestern's defense blows -- but so does UCLA's, so expect a high-scoring game.

The game starts at 11 a.m. on KCBS/2. I'll be rioting in Glendale if NU somehow wins its first bowl game since 1948.

Update: Sigh -- no rioting in Glendale. Northwestern dominated most of the first quarter, but then quickly saw its early 22-0 lead evaporate. In the end, UCLA won, 50-38.
