UCLA Bruins — 2025 Season Review

The UCLA Bruins completed the 2025 season with a 3-9 overall record under head coach DeShaun Foster, navigating a difficult campaign as a member of the Big Ten. The program averaged 18.2 points per game while allowing 33.4 points per contest across 12 games.

Among the standout results were a 38-13 victory on the road against Michigan State Spartans, a 42-37 victory at home against Penn State Nittany Lions, and a 20-17 victory at home against Maryland Terrapins. These performances illustrated the depth and determination that characterized the UCLA Bruins throughout the 2025 campaign.

The setbacks included a narrow 14-17 defeat to Northwestern Wildcats and a narrow 23-30 defeat to UNLV Rebels. Despite the losses, the coaching staff used each result as a teaching moment to develop the roster for the remainder of the schedule.

In Big Ten play, the UCLA Bruins compiled a 3-6 conference record across 9 league contests. Conference matchups tested the Ucla program's depth and preparation week after week throughout the 2025 schedule.

The UCLA Bruins finished 2-4 in home games and 1-5 away from home during the 2025 season. The split between home and road performance provided insight into the team's ability to handle different environments throughout the schedule.

The offense was particularly productive early in the campaign, scoring 137 points in the first half of the schedule before cooling to 81 in the latter portion. The defensive unit's ability to limit opponents to 33.4 points per game proved crucial in several of the season's tightest matchups.

Looking at the full body of work, the UCLA Bruins posted a 3-9 record in 2025, which underscored the need for roster development. Across 12 games, the team was challenged by opponents with a scoring margin of -15.2 points per game. These results provided a blueprint for improvement moving forward.
