UCLA ready to face an unpredictable Hawai’i team after short week off

UCLA’s defense had a good idea of what to expect last Sunday. That won’t be the case Saturday. Spread-happy former UCLA offensive coordinator Noel Mazzone and Texas A&M started a redshirt freshman at quarterback and returned the team’s top-two rushers from last season, but the Bruins’ next opponent won’t have such a one-sided offense.

UCLA makes last-minute turnaround against Texas A&M, winning 45-44

This post was updated Sept. 3 at 10:59 p.m. Jedd Fisch calls himself a Patriots fan, but when the first-year offensive coordinator looked up at the scoreboard that showed UCLA football trailing Texas A&M by 34 points, he couldn’t even dream of a Super Bowl-like comeback – not when the Bruins were down by almost twice as much as New England was against the Atlanta Falcons.
