KEY STATS AND ANALYSIS
So far, the Bruins are averaging 39.62 points per game on offense, which is good for 11th most
in college football. This should be a good matchup for the Bruins as Arizona State is giving up
28.75 points per game and has its problems getting off the field on 3rd down.
One aspect of the game that could benefit a UCLA offense that struggles to generate big plays
in the passing attack, is that they are facing off an Arizona State defense that has yet to
generate a lot of pressure on opposing quarterbacks. So far, the Sun Devils are just 158th in
sacks per game.

country. This has come while ranking 47th in attempts at 38.25 per game. This week, the Bruins

they have averaged 253.0 yards per game when facing defenses ranked outside the top 50.
Heading into this week’s matchup, the Sun Devils will look to improve their offensive output,
as they are ranked just 78th in the NCAA in points scored.

they have a chance to take advantage against a UCLA defense that is allowing an average of 24.25
points per game and has had its problems getting off the field on third down.

they have an opportunity to find success through the air vs a UCLA defense allowing teams to
