Interesting Matchups and More
The UCLA Bruins have one of the best defenses in the country, boasting a top-10 ranking in most categories. Their QB pressure is the highest in the nation, according to PFF.
It will be interesting to see how the Bruins handle the Arizona Wildcats' emerging QB, Noah Fifita. Fifita came into the game after starting QB, Jayden de Laura, suffered an ankle injury. Despite being cleared to play, the Wildcats have led Fifta to stay in.
Fifita has been stellar, amassing 1,221 yards, 8 TDs, 3 INTs, and 75% completion in four starts.
Despite Fifta playing lights out, he will be facing a tough defense from the Bruins, who have star Laiatu Latu chasing down QBs.
Ethan Garbers had a tougher time last week when dealing with the Colorado Buffaloes, but managed to shake off his first-quarter issues, throwing for 269 yards and 2 TDs. The Wildcats might try to ruffle his feathers early on, in the same way the Buffaloes did.
