I saw that on film. Actually on the bus ride here I was watching the film they ran against ASU the previous game. I was waiting for that. They ran that a couple times. They tried to run a little power, get the linebackers to bite on the run, and they just do a little pop Meyers Leonard Jersey pa s over the linebacker. But I was waiting for it. Playing without Bill McGovern at defensive coordinator?We played well. Coach Clancy stepped in. Just like nothing happened. What did you fix from last week's performance?Scroll to ContinueWe emphasized this whole week, just going back to fundamentals. Tackling, stopping the run. Pretty much just keep it simple. Last week we were thinking too much, I would say. We just went back Avery Bradley Jersey to the fundamentals, and thats exactly what we did tonight. Just went back to fundamentals. Tackling and stopping the run, which I think we did fairly well.Coming in as a transfer and being trusted to be the middle linebacker?It means a lot to me, taking this Hassan Whiteside Jersey role. The mike backer. I see it as the quarterback role. The defense. I take a lot of pride in that. I lead this defense. They call on me and I call on them. Its a brotherhood relationship. Just being able to take this role, being given this role by the coaches and my teammates really means a lot to me. I really try to show up every game for them. Not just for myself, for my teammates.Defense feel any pre sure to bounce back from last week?Yeah for Ryan Anderson Jersey sure, I feel like were walking in with a big chip on our shoulder. We had to. We knew we had to show up. Our offense was keeping us in the game throughout the whole week last week. So we knew we had to carry our weight for the team. And I feel like we did a great job tonight.Read more UCLA stories: Read more UCLA football stories:
