UCLA Makes History in The First Quarter, Fail to Do So In The First Half

The Bruins are on fire!

The UCLA Bruins are up big at halftime against the North Carolina Central Eagles, 45-0. 

The Bruins came out the gates hot, scoring 35 points in the first quarter, which broke a record for most points in a quarter since 1958. 

UCLA has broken its record for most points in a quarter (since 1958) with 35 in the 1st.

UCLA wasted no time scoring 14 points in only two offensive plays and kept that momentum rolling throughout. 

Their first quarter was historic; however, they failed to make history in the first half. 

If they had scored more than 56 points in the first 30 minutes, they would've broken a record for UCLA Points in a half. 

The record for UCLA points in a half is 56 (vs Colorado, 1980).

Still, I'm sure fans would take the 45-point lead at halftime over being down in the game. 

There is a ton of game left, but it looks like it's UCLA's game to lose in the second half.
