A daring college football prediction

Brian Walker of TheStreet.com has posted four daring college football predictions. They’re all worth a read, but this one naturally caught our eye:

Bellotti to UCLA?

So, in today’s LA Times, Bill Plaschke practically creams himself exalting Bellotti as the man who can make UCLA the Trojans’ equal in this city. And he says that Mike Bellotti is 5-3 against Pete Carroll.
