The Arizona Wildcats are set to visit the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California for a Pac-12 clash against the UCLA Bruins. The Arizona Wildcats come into this matchup with a 0-2 record, and they will be looking to rebound after dropping their recent road game against the Washington Huskies, 44-27. QB Grant Gunnell had a productive game through the air for the Wildcats as he threw for 259 yards and 3 TDs. WR Stanley Berryhill III was the top target for Gunnell and Arizona as he hauled in 5 catches for 65 yards and 2 TDs.

The Arizona Wildcats struggled on the defensive side of the ball against the Washington Huskies as they allowed them to score 44 points and rack up a total of 472 yards of offense. DB Rhedi Short, DL Roy Lopez, and DL Trevon Mason led the way for the Arizona defense with 5 tackles each. The Wildcats were able to get into the Washington backfield a handful of times as LB Rourke Freeburg, DB Lorenzo Burns, and DL Paris Shand all recorded TFLs.

The UCLA Bruins come into this matchup with a 1-2 record, and they will be looking to rebound after dropping their recent road game against the Oregon Ducks, 38-35. QB Chase Griffin struggled to find much consistency through the air for UCLA as he threw for 195 yards, 1 TD, and 2 interceptions. RB Demetric Felton had a big game on the ground for the Bruins as he compiled 167 yards and 2 TDs on 34 carries. 

The UCLA Bruins struggled on the defensive side of the ball against the Oregon Ducks as they allowed them to score 38 points and rack up a total of 422 yards of offense. DB Stephen Blaylock and LB Carl Jones led the way for the UCLA defense with 6 tackles each. The Bruins were able to get into the Oregon backfield a handful of times as LB Mitchell Agude and DL Osa Odighizuwa combined for 4 TFLs.

The UCLA Bruins almost came from behind to beat the Oregon Ducks as they scored a TD late in the 4thquarter to bring the game within 3, and that was with their backup QB in Chase Griffin. The Arizona Wildcats played a tough schedule to open the season with USC and Washington on the schedule, but they have shown flashes of promise as QB Grant Gunnell has been a gunslinger for this offense. The Wildcats have a handful of playmakers surrounding the QB with Berryhill III, Cunningham, and Brightwell, and they should be able to get out on a UCLA defense that has given up 48 points and 38 points in 2 of their 3 games this year. The Arizona defense is a mess themselves, but they have the weapons on the offensive side of the ball to keep this game within reach. Final Score Prediction, UCLA Bruins win but fail to cover ATS 41-35.
