As UCLA fans slowly shuffled out of the Rose Bowl well before the final gun Saturday afternoon, walking away from what was an old-fashioned Texas barbecue, they had plenty of food for thought.
The toughest thing to chew on following Texas’ 49-20 victory was that UCLA had given up more points in the Rose Bowl only twice.
USC scored 52 in 2002.
Caltech scored 59 in 1923.
The Longhorns made themselves at home in Pasadena — even bringing Bevo west for the occasion —and took the Bruins by the horns, rolling up 488 total yards.
