UCLA starting QB in Week 10: Who will start for DeShaun Foster's team against Nebraska?
The UCLA Bruins (2-5, 1-4 Big Ten Conference) will return to action on Saturday against the Nebraska Cornhuskers (5-3, 2-3) in Week 10 of the season. In Week 9, the Bruins had an open week. UCLA coach DeShaun Foster will look to lead his team to its third win of the year and will have Ethan Garbers as the starting quarterback.
UCLA snapped a five-game losing streak via a close 35-32 victory over the Rutgers Scarlet Knights in Week 8. Garbers had his best performance of the season and showcased his passing ability. He went 32 of 38 for 383 yards and four touchdowns.
Foster has struggled to get the offense going with Garbers as the starting QB. This season, he has thrown for 1,484 yards, eight touchdowns and nine interceptions. It has not been the season that the Bruins had hoped for, but their win over Rutgers is a confidence booster ahead of Saturday's game. Foster will look for Garbers to lead the team's offense successfully again as they try to end their season strong.
A look at the depth chart for the UCLA Bruins
Although Garbers is expected to start, Foster has several backup options if he needs to make a substitution. UCLA has seven quarterbacks on the bench who could step up if necessary.
One notable option is Chase Griffin, who had several opportunities as the team's starting QB in 2020 but hasn't played this season.
However, Garbers will likely play a full game and try to pull off an upset victory over Nebraska.
