The futures of the UCLA Bruins and Utah Utes haven’t been the best over the past week. Both Top-20 teams lost last week and now will play each other on Saturday afternoon looking to rebound from their disappointments at Utah’s Rice-Eccles Stadium. The 18th-ranked Utes are 8-2 overall and 5-2 in the Pac-12 Conference while the Bruins are 7-3 overall and 4-3 in the conference. This becomes a key game for the South Division title in the conference.
UCLA lost 31-27 at home against Washington State. Josh Rosen has been great as a freshman, throwing for 2,904 yards, 18 touchdowns and seven interceptions. Jordan Payton has found plenty of room in the passing game with 64 catches for 904 yards and four touchdowns while on the ground, Paul Perkins has been a monster to deal with. Perkins has 1,082 rushing yards and ten touchdowns to lead the Bruins. It is a game that UCLA would love to win knowing they have to finish the season with a game against USC.
Utah lost in double overtime to Arizona 37-30 which ended any hopes that the Utes may have had to make the college football playoff. Travis Wilson has thrown for 1,806 yards, 12 touchdowns and nine interceptions while finding the likes of Britain Covey plenty. Covey had 41 catches for 518 yards and four touchdowns. The run game has been controlled by Devontae Booker, who has 1,261 rushing yards on 268 carries to go with 11 touchdowns. The Utes want to make sure a Rose Bowl berth and conference title berth is still a possibility after this one.
