The 1958 UCLA Bruins football team was an American football team that represented the University of California, Los Angeles in the Pacific Coast Conference during the 1958 college football season. In their first year under head coaches George W. Dickerson (three games) and then Bill Barnes (seven games), the Bruins compiled a 3–6–1 record (2–4–1 in PCC, sixth).
UCLA's offensive leaders in 1958 were quarterback Don Long with 395 passing yards, Ray Smith with 307 rushing yards, and John Brown with 259 receiving yards.
Five weeks before the first game, head coach Red Sanders died of a heart attack at age 53 in a Los Angeles hotel room. Dickerson was promoted to head coach several days later, but after two hospitalizations for nervous exhaustion, Barnes was named head coach prior to the fourth game, and remained through the 1964 season.
