    2015 UCLA FOOTBALL JIM MORA Head Coach 4th Season Washington '84 On December 10, 2011, former Atlanta Falcons and Seattle Seahawks head coach Jim Mora was named UCLA's 17th head coach in school history. In 2014, Coach Mora guided the Bruins to the ninth 10-win season in school his- tory, matching the school record for wins in a season. It marked the third straight year in which Mora's Bruins had produced at least nine wins, a À rst in program history. His 29 total wins are the most-ever by a UCLA coach in his initial three seasons on the job. Following the victory in the 2015 Alamo Bowl, UCLA had captured wins in 10 straight games away from the Rose Bowl to tie that school record, including a school-best 7-0 slate in 2014. That win was also the team's third over teams ranked among the Associated Press' Top 15 at the time of the contest, which was the most by the program since it defeated four such teams in 1952. The Bruins capped off the season ranked No. 10 in the À nal AP poll which was the highest for the program since 1998. Linebacker Eric Kendricks, who became the school's all-time leading tackler during the 2014 season, went on to be UCLA's À rst recipient of the Butkus Award and the À nished no lower than fourth in the NFL versus the run and in 2003, produced 42 second-straight winner of the Lott IMPACT Trophy. Quarterback Brett Hundley set sacks, to tie for second in the conference.
