UCLA Football Struggles Deepen with Blowout Loss, Social Media Taunts

The UCLA Bruins football team, under the leadership of second-year head coach DeShaun Foster, is experiencing a disastrous 2025 season marked by a 0-3 start, including a humiliating 35-10 home loss to New Mexico, an FCS school that secured its first-ever win over a Big Ten opponent. The team's poor performance has led to harsh criticism from fans, media, and even social media trolling by the Pac-12 Conference, which mocked UCLA’s struggles following their exit from the conference to join the Big Ten. Attendance at games has dropped significantly, and Foster's coaching ability is widely questioned, with many calling for his dismissal as the Bruins continue to underperform against both lesser and stronger opponents. The Bruins face a tough upcoming schedule that includes several powerhouse teams, raising concerns about the possibility of a winless season. UCLA’s athletic department may need to consider drastic measures, including the potential downgrading or discontinuation of the football program, to address ongoing failures. The program’s decline has turned what was once a premier college football team into a subject of ridicule and disappointment.
