This is my first-ever poll, and I've been here for 10 years.

I voted Cincinnati, because we are coming off an 11 win season and Fickell's team seems poised for a huge year... but I think UCLA fans are pretty excited about Chip Kelly and they could have a similar jump in year 2 to what we did in Fickell year 2. Should be an awesome game at Nippert.

I went UCLA because they have finally found a successor who can equal or exceed John Wooden...

Since a sport wasn't specified and UCLA is now saddled with MC while we have a very promising incoming MBB coach AND high hopes for the coming FB season I voted UC.

I figured this was for football, since that's our opener in a few months.

If we're talking basketball though, my answer is the same... I'm sure UC fans are more pumped.

I say UCLA because while everyone else is missing "Game of Thrones", they get to have Tyrion Lannister as their coach.

No contest. We're more pumped. The Cats have a shot at a conference chip and playing in the Cotton Bowl. The Bruins will try to become bowl eligible.

UC. Tons of upside in most of our sports, especially the fball and b-ball. Fickell and Brannen are positive and instill confidence. UCLA is in the beginning stages of rebuilds for fball and b-ball. Plus they are saddled with Mick.

I chose UCLA. No offense to the student athletes, but our water polo and beach volleyball programs are seriously lacking.
