Patrick's Plus Three

PLUS THREE

UCLA has become a rival to Penn State's "Linebacker U" label. Here's why:

• Anthony Barr, 6-5 and 255 pounds, No. 9 pick in 2014 draft for Vikings: 138 tackles, 7½ sacks, five forced fumbles and an interception in 26 starts.

• Eric Kendricks, 6 feet and 235, No. 45 pick in 2015 draft for Vikings: 92 tackles, four sacks, in 14 games (11 starts).

• Myles Jack, 6-1 and 225, projected top-five pick in 2016 draft: Jack is being called a "faster Ray Lewis" and will be long gone before Vikings can put together a UCLA trio at linebacker.

The Gophers played with more urgency, but it wasn’t enough to keep them from another conference sweep, and they lost LJ Mooney to injury in the process.
