It is UCLA’s unenviable task to build on its one-game winning streak by heading to Eugene to face some angry Ducks fresh off a 44-10 beating taken from USC.

And besides that, UCLA Coach Rick Neuheisel is almost as unpopular in Eugene (where he didn’t coach) as he is in Washington (where he did coach). Here’s a link to a Portland Oregonian blog where UCLA’s upcoming visit is discussed.

After seeing how Portland’s own Kevin Love was treated in his game at Eugene last year with UCLA, Neuheisel probably won’t be greeted politely.
