UCLA football secures win over Nebraska as coach DeShaun Foster emphasizes team progress
UCLA football secured a 27-20 victory over Nebraska, marking their third win of the season. Coach DeShaun Foster highlighted the team's improvement after a rough start, now sitting at 3-5 overall and 2-4 in the Big Ten. The Bruins' offensive line showed significant progress, allowing quarterback Ethan Garbers to perform well with 219 passing yards and two touchdowns. However, the team struggled with discipline, committing several unsportsmanlike conduct penalties that extended Nebraska's scoring drives. Foster's coaching decisions reflected a more cautious approach, opting for field goals instead of aggressive plays. With a favorable remaining schedule, UCLA aims to qualify for a bowl game in Foster's first season.
