Was probably more ND fans than Miami fans if I had to guess.

Especially since it was well over 90 degrees on Saturday
So about the same temp as the 3 months prior? How hot was it at the beach?

Thats just how LA and Miami fans are
They’re also both well off campus. Sucks for students.
If Tiger Stadium was in Zachary, our student turnout wouldn’t be so great either.

UCLA is about 60% Asian and Hispanic at this point, I don't think they care much for college football.

I don’t understand why UCLA plays their home games 1 hr away from campus
Their campus has no room for a football stadium.

Their international student population has also steadily increased in recent years.
Also, over 60% of their undergraduates are female.
A couple of decades of bad football that coincided with shifting student and alumni demographics that don’t care football equates to a lot of empty seats.

Also playing home games in Pasadena doesn’t help.

There's too much other stuff to do in Southern California besides watch a crap college football team. USC was the toast of the town for a while, but that was when they were winning and there wasn't an NFL team in Los Angeles.

And UCLA relies on students to go to the games historically because Joe public in LA isn't going to UCLA games, they're going crosstown.
2 Decades of Asian/International students taking over and boom, you have a middle-aged alumni base that doesn't care about American College Football and our silly traditions.
UCLA admissions policies basically killed the UCLA football fanbase.
Which makes it fun to remember what a clown Bill Plaschke is....
In 2001, in the L.A. Times he proclaimed...
"This is a Bruin football town, and has been a Bruin football town, and will continue to be a Bruin football town..."
He was clowned by everyone then...and trolled by Carroll's dynasty and looks even dumber now.

They need a nice small campus stadium, like SMU or Tulane, and then they can still use the Rose Bowl for big games.

They still had that whole section of endzone blocked off with “UCLA” banner

They would have better attendance if they shared The Coliseum with USC again or moved to SoFi.

UCLA is not a football school and they didn't do themselves any favors hiring DeShaun Foster as their new head coach.

Dodgers drew 47,600 on the same night. It’s pretty bad when a football team gets out-drawn by 20,000 by a baseball team, even one as great as the Dodgers.

Well that's an argument to DEFEND UCLA.
Game night: 1st place MLB team OR perennial loser College team playing someone from Salt Lake.
There's no Lakers, Dodgers and NFL in Norman, Lincoln, Tuscaloosa or Baton Rouge.

only to the fans of programs who are .500 or less against them all time.
