UCLA Football: Pundit Hopeful Bruins, 3 Other Pac-12 Clubs Make Playoffs

Need this energy all around!

The 2023 season for the UCLA Bruins is a very special one for a multitude of reasons. Dante Moore is coming into his own and starting to show the world that he can shine on the collegiate stage just like he did in high school, head coach Chip Kelly hopes to help the team rise against the best programs in the nation and of course, this is UCLA's final campaign in the Pac-12 Conference.

When the news was first announced that they would be making way to the Big Ten Conference in 2024, the sports world had mixed reactions. However, considering UCLA's growing market and rise in the recruiting business, it makes a lot of sense. They will be exposed to entirely new competition levels and new sponsorship/TV streaming opportunities will present themselves as well.

But UCLA's main focus remains on maximizing their current season without a doubt. The Bruins were placed number 24 out of 25 teams in the NCAA's most recent AP college football rankings following two big wins to kick off their season.

Therefore, Barstool UCLA has made a hot prediction for not only the Bruins to make the playoffs this year but also three other Pac-12 Conference teams in USC, Oregon and the University of Washington.

UCLA, USC, Oregon, UW in the playoff. It’s inevitable. https://t.co/xlNkTPHrrm

"UCLA, USC, Oregon, UW in the playoff. It’s inevitable."

The Bruins' schedule is only going to get tougher from here on out and they will run into a number of challenges that will show exactly what they are made of.

Head coach Chip Kelly does have a talented and tight-knit group on his hands so we will see if this prediction comes true!
