LSU vs. UCLA Football Series History
First meeting
Comments
UCLA finished the 2020 season with a 3-4 record. The Bruins had a potent offense but so did the opponents that played them. Both of these teams return a bevy of starters from 2020. I give the Tigers the edge in this one but it probably could go either way.
