FIRST QUARTER

UCLA 7, Kansas 3

THE SCORING: * Kansas 3, UCLA 0: Johnny Beck 52-yard field goal at 10:18. 10 plays, 23 yards. * UCLA 7, Kansas 3: Cory Paus one-yard run at 2:35. 12 plays, 70 yards. PAT--Chris Griffith (kick).

TURNING POINT: With Kansas at UCLA’s 20 and threatening to increase its 3-0 lead, Bruin linebacker Robert Thomas shot up the middle and nailed quarterback Zach Dyer, dropping back on third and 10. Dyer fumbled, and linebacker Ryan Nece recovered at the 30, setting up the touchdown drive.

NOT IN THE SUMMARY: In a big setback for the Jayhawks, Harrison Hill, the leading returning receiver in the Big 12 Conference, sustained a fractured shoulder blade and was knocked out of action early in the quarter. Season firsts for the Bruins: first penalty, first turnover and first catch by Brian Poli-Dixon, second on the team with 53 receptions last season.

STAT WATCH: UCLA’s DeShaun Foster ran 11 times for 70 yards, a 6.4-yard average, particularly impressive considering he lost 14 yards on his first carry. The Jayhawks gained 12 yards in 15 carries, a 0.8-yard average.

SECOND QUARTER

THE SCORING: * UCLA 10, Kansas 3: Griffith 31-yard field goal at 12:19. 11 plays, 66 yards. * UCLA 13, Kansas 3: Griffith 36-yard field goal at 8:43. Seven plays, 43 yards. * UCLA 20, Kansas 3: Nece 22-yard interception return at 8:26. PAT--Griffith (kick). * UCLA 27, Kansas 3: Tab Perry, 49-yard pass from Paus at 3:20. 1 play, 49 yards. PAT--Griffith (kick); UCLA 27, Kansas 10: Mario Kinsey two-yard run at :39. 13 plays, 80 yards. PAT--Beck.

TURNING POINT: The Bruin lead grew from 10-3 to 20-3 in a span of 17 seconds. That essentially pushed the mute button on the crowd, which was encouraged early in the game when Kansas’ defense made a few plays.

NOT IN THE SUMMARY: A week after leading the team in tackles at Alabama, Nece had a fumble recovery and interception return for a touchdown in the first half. He underwent two shoulder operations during the off-season. The touchdown dive by Kinsey, a redshirt freshman playing in his first game, was set up by a pass-interference call in the end zone by cornerback Joe Hunter.

STAT WATCH: By halftime, Foster had 110 yards in 17 carries, matching his yardage total against Alabama. The Kansas ground game, meanwhile, slipped deeper into the abyss, finishing the half with seven yards in 20 carries.

THIRD QUARTER

UCLA 34, Kansas 10

THE SCORING: * UCLA 34, Kansas 10: Craig Bragg 37-yard run at 4:55. One play, 37 yards. PAT--Griffith (kick).

NOT IN THE SUMMARY: Punter Nate Fikse also handles kickoffs. That’s not to say the opposition handles his kickoffs, however, which typically wind up deep in the end zone. The Bruins were called offsides on the opening kickoff of the second half--which, naturally, sailed out of the end zone--and Fikse had to re-kick from the 30. And, boom, he did it again. Then Bragg’s touchdown was set up by a 17-yard Kansas punt.

STAT WATCH: Foster had 206 yards of offense through three quarters, 23 more than the entire Kansas offense.

FOURTH QUARTER

UCLA 41, Kansas 17

THE SCORING: * UCLA 41, Kansas 10: Foster four-yard run at 13:23. Eight plays, 74 yards. PAT--Griffith (kick). * UCLA 41, Kansas 17: Kinsey one-yard run at 7:04.

NOT IN THE SUMMARY: On the play before his touchdown, Foster ran for 10 yards and was tackled at the four by a cluster of eight struggling defenders.

STAT WATCH: UCLA’s oft-criticized defense holds a second consecutive opponent to 17 points. The last time the Bruins held teams to fewer than 20 points in successive games came in 1997, against Cal and Stanford.
