No...UCS blows through every topped ranked team above them including those in other conferences, every single year. The problem is, they often under perform against the mediocre teams (cough Oregon and Notre Dame), and it is this that usually drops them in their ranking. This has nothing to do with their talent or ability to win, it has to do with their motivation (coaching is partially to blame). With a semi new coaching staff, hopefully this one and only negative will change.
BTW, did anyone see their band get booed at Dodger stadium during the 7th inning stretch? Most Dodger fans are UCLA fans (unlike myself)
