UCLA Bruins vs. Arizona State Sun Devils: Match Details
The UCLA Bruins have been doing very well offensively as they have averaged 39.6 points on 500.6 total yards per game, heading into this matchup. They have an excellent quarterback in senior Dorian Thompson-Robinson. He is a threat throwing and passing the football. They also have an elite running back in senior Zach Charbonnet, who is averaging a massive 8.2 rushing yards per attempt with nine touchdowns against other Pac-12 Conference opponents.
Defensively, they are allowing 24.3 points per game on 360.5 total yards thus far. They have no issues getting to the quarterback with 19 team sacks, which are led by junior linebacker Laiatu Latu, who has 7.5 sacks up to this game. The opposing offenses are struggling to move the ball and are doing well and should get some three-and-outs.
The Arizona State Sun Devils have been a decent offensive team as they have put up 27.1 points per game heading into this matchup. They should have backup quarterback Trenton Bourguet get the start as he had a 300-yard passing game for the Sun Devils for the first time in their 26 games. They also have senior running back Xazavian Valladay in the backfield, who has recorded 10 touchdowns on the ground while averaging 5.5 yards per carry this season and has not seen his numbers drop against ranked teams.
Their defense is giving up 28.8 points per game as they are allowing 152 rushing yards per game, which is not going to get the job done often. They were not able to get in the backfield much last game against Colorado as they recorded a single sack and six tackles for loss throughout the game. However, they did record six pass deflections with an interception.
