It comes down to experience. Their is no substitute for it. Inexperience = turnovers.

Redshirt freshman Kevin Prince passed for 161 yards, UCLA's defense accounted for two touchdowns and set up a field goal, and the Bruins beat Arizona State 23-13 Saturday to become bowl eligible with their sixth win.

UCLA deserves to play in a bowl game. It might be tough to convince bowl representatives - since there wasn't one in attendance at the Rose Bowl on Saturday.

Arizona State and UCLA both will find it tough to reach a bowl game after the final two weeks of their up-and-down seasons.

UCLA head coach Rick Neuheisel widely is considered one of the game's best recruiters.

UCLA is headed in a different, bigger direction with its running game this week.

A resurgent football program has cropped up near the Washington-Idaho border. Fortunately for UCLA, that team is 7-3 Idaho, eight miles and across a state line from woeful Washington State in Pullman.

Kevin Prince threw for 314 yards and ran for a touchdown as UCLA beat Washington State 43-7 on Saturday in a showdown of the bottom two teams in the Pacific-10. Chane Moline ran for three touchdowns as UCLA kept alive its hopes of getting a bowl bid.

Washington State and UCLA both badly need a win when they play in Pullman on Saturday.

Good thing the air got a bit chillier as UCLA's Wednesday practice wore on. It's about to get a whole lot colder for the Bruins as they head north to play Washington State on Saturday.

The names are being tossed around in a flurry, UCLA's excitable fans trying to make their mark on the offense.

UCLA plays Washington Saturday, and Bruins coach Rick Neuheisel has never lost to one of his former teams.

If Kevin Prince plays like he practices, the UCLA quarterback and the offense could be much improved against Washington on Saturday.

UCLAa s attempt to put a stop to a five-game losing streak Saturday could hinge on freshman quarterback Kevin Prince continuing the kind of passing he showed last week.

It was evident that a four-game losing streak didn't take the fight out of UCLA.

Back at the start of the season, some wondered where the Pac-10's quarterbacks had gone.

Given what the Rodgers brothers, James and Jacquizz, have accomplished in their season-and-a-half together at Oregon State, it's to imagine them finding more ways to make the Beavers' offense go.

UCLA's Nelson Rosario catches a long pass against Oregon State's Lance Mitchell, one of several fourth-quarter completions that hurt the Beavers.
