Foster Surprised by Outburst

It’s been almost a week since freshman DeShaun Foster’s breakout four-touchdown performance against USC and he’s still a little surprised by his effort.

“You don’t doubt yourself but I was just hoping for the opportunity,” said Foster, who leads UCLA with 12 touchdowns. “I just wanted to contribute and help out the team any way I could.”

After sitting out two practices this week because of strep throat, Foster should be healthy for the game against Miami on Dec. 5.
