WATERCOOLER CHAT: BAYLOR OVER UCLA IN BOWL GAME, TWO COACHES FIRED IN NBA

FOOTBALL

In college football, bowl games are in full swing. Baylor University stomped all over No. 17 UCLA. The 49 -26 rout in the Bridgeport Education Holiday bowl began with 21 straight points from the Baylor Bears. UCLA freshman quarterback Brett Hundley threw the ball 50 times for more than 300 yards and three touchdowns and the defense forced three turnovers. However, UCLA was only 1-17 on third down and was outrushed 206 – 33. The highlight of the night was Baylor quarterback Nick Florence was 10 – 13 for 188 yards to overtake Robert Griffin III as the single season passing leader at Baylor.

BASKETBALL

It is not even the New Year and two coaches have been fired in the NBA. The Los Angeles Lakers axed their coach earlier this season and now Brooklyn Nets coach Avery Johnson was given his pink slip.  Johnson was named Eastern Conference coach of the month just last month, but the league is very much, ‘What have you done for me lately.’ P.J. Carlisemo was named the interim head coach, but it is assumed that ‘the basketball guru’ Phil Jackson will be the top target for the job.
