Keys to the Game
- Share via
Steve Henson’s keys to the game, and how the Bruins measured up:
1. Tailback Tyler Ebell must run well against a Husky defense that is porous against the pass and stingy against the run: Ebell rushed for 102 yards, his fifth consecutive game of more than 100, and had three touchdowns on one-yard runs.
2. The Bruin secondary must intercept passes to ease the burden on the Bruin offense: UCLA made a season-high four interceptions, one each by Ricky Manning, Jarrad Page, Marcus Reese and Spencer Havner.
3. Nate Fikse must continue to kick well in his second week of double duty: Fikse was two for two on field goals, giving him seven of seven in two games since taking over for Chris Griffith.
