The Good: UCLA has a three-game winning streak. Attendance is back up….there were 10K more that saw UCLA manhandle the Iowa running game. UCLA held them to 80 yards totals and held their star running back, Kaleb Johnson, to 49 yards or 2.7 yards per carry. UCLA, on the other hand, rushed for 211 yards and Harden had his first 100-yard game this season. Our defense shut down the Iowa offense to 265 total and was 40% in third down efficiency. Kudos to Bhaghhani, who had the second longest FG in UCLA history and Richter who average 55 yards per punt.

The Bad: Garbers had a so-so game having 2 INT, and 1 fumble resulting is scores but he was also 21 of 34 passing, 203 yards and kept the drives alive with his passing and running. The oline showed incremental improvement by not allowing a single sack. I think we may of lost our starting LT to injury. Niki Prongos was a walk-on but he was one of the bright spots of the mediocre OL.

The Ugly: The penalties and turnovers hurt a great performance by UCLA, Garbers had two INTs early is the game that cost UCLA 10 points.
