"I Wish They All Could Be Tennessee Vols"

   That's what West Coast football teams must be singing, to the tune of the Beach Boys' "California Girls," after another season-opening spankfest of Tennessee. One year after losing to Cal-Berkeley, the Vols got snuffed by another California school with inferior talent, UCLA. And don't blame the kicker. Had the offense not gone backwards on three possessions in regulation, he would not have had to prayer up a trio of 50-yard-plus field goals (one of them wiped out by penalty).   
    Give a game ball to the master, new/old UCLA offensive coordinator Norm Chow. Remember where he was last year? (Hint: Too close for comfort, Knoxvillians.)
   And did you get the impression Chow and resurrected boss Rick Neuheisel have a better handle on a game than Phil Fulmer and sidekicks?
