This one will likely be close, but the Bruins are likely the better team and should be able to get a close win.
The Bruins won the toss and deferred. Knight found just that opportunity with Texas A&M;, which had a sudden opening at quarterback following Allen and Murray's transfers.
This game features two possible No. 1 overall draft picks in 2017 and 2018 respectively in Texas A&M; defensive end Myles Garrett and UCLA quarterback Josh Rosen.
Texas A&M;'s quarterback Trevor Knight (8) looks to pass during the first quarter of an NCAA college football game against UCLA Saturday, Sept. 3, 2016, in College Station, Texas. Unfortunately for the Aggies, the kid rung it off the right upright, UCLA maintained its lead, 3-0. His career YPA of 7.0 doesn't strike much of a chord, and his last full season produced marks of 14 touchdowns to 12 interceptions. At Running Back, Nate Starks and Soso Jamambo will carry the load.
Texas A&M; scored on consecutive drives in the second quarter, burning the UCLA defense with its quick tempo.
TAMU took over at their own 30 yard line after the kickoff. "I went up for it and made a play". Once again, UCLA could not solve TAMU deep, and were forced to settle for Molson's third field goal of the day, a chip shot.
Steelers claim QB Zach Mettenberger off waivers from Chargers
Mettenberger, who was the with the San Diego Chargers prior to being released, was in his first full offseason with the team. It seems that whoever loses the battle for Big Ben's backup will have to battle Bryn Renner for the No. 3 quarterback spot.
4 Consecutive victories for UCLA in games against SEC opponents.
TAMU took over on their 15 yard line with one minute 15 seconds left. Two Texas A&M; players are from California.
The Aggies heard all offseason about how they couldn't slow the run last season - and it was justified considering they were 107th nationally in that category. Walker had six receptions for 115 yards.
Offensively, Texas A&M; footaball averaged 255.6 yards in passing and 169.1 yards in rushing. Each school has two wins, with UCLA taking a 29-23 victory in the most recent meeting on January 1, 1998, in the Cotton Bowl. The Aggies have been in something of a funk against good teams at home, and they don't have time for a warmup this year as UCLA has a chance to be really good.
