After California's third straight Rose Bowl loss in1951, the Pacific Coast Conference disallowed consecutive appearances. The first PCC program adversely affected was UCLA; the undefeated and second-ranked1954 team was ineligible for the 1955 Rose Bowl; it would have been the second of three consecutive. The rule was dropped by the succeeding AAWU (BigFive) in 1959 (Washington won in 1960 and 1961), but the BigTen kept it from the late 1940s until the early1970s.
ThePac-8 (and Big Ten) did not allow multiple bowl teams until the 1975 season, in which the Bruins won the RoseBowl. Intwelve Rose Bowl appearances, UCLA has won five (.417), with three streaks: five losses, five wins, and currently two losses. The last victory was in January 1986 (third in four years), and the most recent appearance was in1999.
Note: UCLA also played in the 1939 Pineapple Bowl, beating Hawaii W 32–7. However, the NCAA does not consider it a Major Bowl, and therefore does not count it towards a team's bowl record as it was a pre-scheduled game.[9]
4th quarter scoring: Georgia – Willard "Red" Boyd blocks Bob Waterfield's punt out of bounds for an automatic safety; Georgia – Frank Sinkwich, one-yard run (Leo Costa converts)
