LOS ANGELES — Coach Chip Kelly and the ninth-ranked UCLA football team are coming off a bye week and their first of two weeks to prepare for No. 10 Oregon.
ESPN’s “College GameDay” pregame show will be in Oregon to preview and highlight the game before the conference showdown is aired on Fox with a 12:30 p.m. kickoff. “We get in Friday around six, we play the next day,” Kelly said about the upcoming travel. “We all know what this entails. It’s a business trip, just like any other away game in this league.”
Autzen Stadium is considered one of the loudest venues in college football, so UCLA has been playing fan noise through the speakers it usually uses to play a variety of music, throughout practice this week. The Bruins also have no control over the weather, with thundershowers and wind in the projected forecast, according to The Weather Channel, for Saturday.
