Get ready for UCLA’s 2025 football season with Big Ten Huddle! We dive into the blockbuster transfer of star quarterback Nico Iamaleava from Tennessee to UCLA, a move shaking up the Big Ten. Young head coach DeShaun Foster is building a new era for the Bruins, leveraging Iamaleava’s 2,616-yard, 19-touchdown talent to spark a turnaround after a 5-7 2024 season. Reflecting on last year’s struggles, we explore how Foster’s staff overhaul, including new offensive coordinator Tino Sunseri, aims to boost UCLA’s offense. Can Iamaleava and Foster lead the Bruins to a bowl game or even a Big Ten upset? Tune in for bold predictions, key matchups like Utah, and what’s next for UCLA football
