There are no national championship implications.
There are no BCS implications.
They aren't vying for the Pac10 title.
Both teams are clawing at the chance to be bowl eligible with 6 wins.
For UCLA a win gets them their sixth.
For ASU a win gets them their fifth which allows them a shot at six on their final game of the regular season.
So in the grand scheme of College Football, the game is an after thought.
But for Bruins fans who have seen the program fall on hard times, this is a big moment.
After last season's 4-8 finish, the goal this year was six wins and a shot at a bowl game.
They are on the verge.
Wall-to-wall coverage can be found at the "blog of the Bruins, by the Bruins, for the Bruins."
Go BRUINS!
UPDATE: Bruins 23 ASU 13! The Bruins now have a shot at going bowling. Next week, it is the showdown with dreaded cross-town rival, USC. They have won 9 of the last 10 faceoffs. I would anticipate USC would be favored despite the struggles they have had this year. Nonetheless, UCLA fans go into this edition of the game with more hope than usual!
GO BRUINS!!!!
