EUGENE, OR — Under rare Friday night lights in Eugene, the No. 8 Oregon Ducks (9–1) handily defeated the Minnesota Golden Gophers 42–13 as they continue their push for the College Football Playoff.

In the absence of star wide receivers Dakorien Moore and Gary Bryant Jr., and with the return of standout right tackle Alex Harkey, the Ducks relied on the run game to set the tone early. Oregon’s ground attack was led by senior running back Noah Whittington, who rushed 8 times for 72 yards and 1 touchdown. His most impressive moment came early in the second quarter, when he drove the pile five yards and broke free for a 40-yard touchdown, extending Oregon’s lead to 21–3.

Minnesota’s redshirt freshman quarterback Drake Lindsey has exceeded expectations this season as a pro-style passer with a strong arm. Oregon head coach Dan Lanning noted before the game that Lindsey has “the ability to make those throws. He gives his wideouts an opportunity to make a play down the field.”

Oregon’s secondary presented the toughest challenge of Lindsey’s young college career. He moved the Gophers downfield at times but struggled to capitalize in Oregon territory. Lindsey finished with a 59% completion rate, going 19/32 for 138 yards and 1 touchdown.

Dante Moore certainly benefited from the return of tight end Kenyon Sadiq, who hauled in 8 receptions for 96 yards and 1 touchdown. Even without two of his top receivers, Moore delivered one of the best performances of his career, finishing 27/30 for 306 yards and 2 touchdowns.

Speaking on Moore’s efficiency, Lanning made it a point to recognize the entire offense, stating, “There were some unbelievable catches that were made. That’s a great indicator of how the offense is operating, but it’s a team award. He can’t throw it and catch it.”

Oregon will stay home next week to host the No. 17 USC Trojans (7–2) in a matchup with major Big Ten implications.

Perry shines in first career start as UCLA downs West Georgia

Westwood, CA –The UCLA Bruins overcame a slow first half start and exploded for 46 points in the second half in their 83-62 win over West Georgia on Monday night.

Making his first career start, Trent Perry filled in admirably for an injured Donovan Dent, who is expected to return for the Bruins’ upcoming showdown vs. No. 5 Arizona on Nov. 14.

“It felt good,” Perry said. “At the end of the day, my dad always told me just create an impact when you’re coming off the bench or starting. I had no other mindset, my mindset didn’t change.”

Perry had career-highs in points, assists, and minutes as he played an extended role in lieu of Dent’s absence. In 37 minutes, the sophomore guard had 17 points, nine assists, and five rebounds.

“I’m concerned with his defense and taking care of the ball. As he gets minutes, he’ll shoot it better…He took care of the ball with nine assists to two turnovers. He’s worked hard, he’s got stronger, he’s done a great job,” UCLA coach Mick Cronin said.

UCLA’s backcourt didn’t have to do much with Tyler Bilodeau and Eric Dailey Jr. handling a bulk of the scoring. Bilodeau scored an early season-high of 21 points on 7-12 shooting from the field. Dailey contributed with 14 points and three rebounds.

West Georgia came out firing in the first half and stunned the Bruins’ defense. They shot the ball at a 69.2 percent clip from behind the arc.

“They hit some hard ones and we had some breakdowns. Obviously, they hit some hard ones that they haven’t shot all year. They didn’t shoot them last year,” Cronin said.

However, the Bruins’ perimeter defense settled down in the second half and held the Wolves to just a 33 percent clip.

In the first half, Dent’s absence was notable. UCLA shot the ball 25 percent from three and the offense wasn’t flowing early. But Skyy Clark and Perry eventually got the offense going, which led to the second-half outburst of 46 points to put West Georgia away.

The Bruins will have to quickly turn their attention to a top-15 battle against Arizona at the Intuit Dome on Friday. Arizona has already beaten a top-25 program in Florida this season. Although UCLA opened with three mid-major opponents, the Bruins have treated them as if they were top-25 teams as well.

“It’s always important no matter who we’re playing. Every day, we got to get better, whether it’s in practice or a game. We gotta look at it like it’s the last game of the year like we are playing in the tournament. Everything matters and that’s what coach has been emphasizing to us quite a bit, and what we are trying to do,” Bilodeau said.

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Purdue faced a No. 1 opponent for the first time since 1990, but Ohio State turned a shaky opening into a commanding 34–10 win Saturday at Ross-Ade Stadium, improving to 9–0 behind another record-setting moment and a punishing ground attack.

Purdue opened the game with one first down before punting, but found early rhythm on its second drive. Ryan Browne went 6-of-7, including a perfectly placed 30-yard strike to Rico Walker to energize Ross-Ade. That drive stalled inside Ohio State territory, yet a 40-yard field goal gave Purdue a 3–0 lead — and brief belief.

Ohio State answered immediately. CJ Donaldson powered in from short range to put the Buckeyes ahead 7–3, but the game’s major momentum swing came shortly after: Julian Sayin connected with Brandon Inniss on a strong chain-moving grab, sparking a drive that ended with Jeremiah Smith’s touchdown. The score made it 14-3 and also placed Smith in the Ohio State record book — reaching 25 career touchdowns in just 25 games, the fastest in program history.

Purdue’s defense hung early, aided by a Buckeye penalty and a called-back long run, but a costly interception under seven minutes before halftime flipped the script for good. Lincoln Kienholz soon punched in a score as Ohio State erupted for 24 second-quarter points, seizing control while holding Purdue under 37 rushing yards and fewer than 100 passing in the first half. Time of possession nearly doubled in OSU’s favor by halftime (20 minutes to 10).

The Buckeye run game wore the Boilers down, and Donaldson added his second touchdown in the second half to stretch the margin. Purdue struggled to mount answers — Browne finished 10-for-19 for 76 yards and a pick, adding 27 rushing yards as the Boilers totaled just 186 yards of offense.

Purdue finally broke through late when Malachi Singleton found freshman Jesse Watson in the end zone, but by then the outcome was long settled.

“The second quarter got away from us — the long drive, the takeaway — it’s hard to overcome against a team like this,” Purdue head coach Barry Odom said. “But I saw some things. I’m going to keep believing we’re going to get back to those winning ways.”

Ohio State moves to 9-0; Purdue falls to 2-8 (0-6 Big Ten).

D. Wright Take Away

Early spark, same story. Purdue showed promise on that second drive — Browne sharp, crowd fired up — but one miscue and long Buckeye drives flipped the game. Against a No. 1 team, those cracks turn into craters. Next up: a road trip to Washington with upset dreams before the in-state battle vs a hot Indiana squad.

Ohio State? Slow start meant nothing. The run game leaned on Purdue, Donaldson punched in two, and Jeremiah Smith keeps rewriting history. One score, one record, same conclusion: he’s different. Buckeyes head home to face UCLA with the No. 1 engine humming.

UCLA unfinished comeback upheld by Nebraska’s quarterback TJ Lateef unbelievable first start and win

Pasadena, CA - Nico Iamaleava had a 9-yard touchdown pass to Anthony Frias II with 4:54 remaining in the game as UCLA went on an unanswered 14-0 run before Nebraska upheld them from adding to that total with an uncomplicated offensive drive led by Freshman quarterback TJ Lateef, also a Compton local native, taking three consecutive knees to run out the clock, and win the game, 28-21 on a snappy Saturday night at the Rose Bowl stadium.  

Iamaleava passed for 191 yards and hit Frias and Woods for TDs along with accruing 15 carries for 86 yards to do all that he could to rally his team despite taking an unfortunate amount of hits.

“I think he [Iamaleava] likes to be in the contact,” UCLA interim head coach, Tim Skipper said. “He was a true dual-threat tonight…I thought he played four quarters of ball…We were starting to get some momentum but we didn’t get the stop at the end.”

The Bruins ran out of time in the end and took too much time at the start to stop Cornhuskers from leading this game through three quarters to figure out how to stop Lateef from completing plays, while he went 10 for 10, totaling up to 173 yards in his team first four possessions resulting to a 21-point deficit, 28-7.

Though both teams struggled in their run defenses, Nebraska was able to hit Iamaleava consistently, yet UCLA demonstrated other chinks in their armor needing to still address including multiple false starts, illegal formation or other unwarranted penalties.

“I’ve gotten hit a lot of times in many games,” Iamaleava said. “I don’t think it affected me…overall, we’ve just got to play better as a whole and finish games.”

While Iamaleava unattached from the Cornhuskers in the second half, Lateef unleashed on the Bruins’ defense the entire game with the help of his teammate and running back, Emmett Johnson, rushing and receiving over 100 yards with two TDs. UCLA did eventually slow the two down by the fourth period, forcing their team to punt.

“I just feel like we got aggressive, both on the line of scrimmage and the corners—everybody on defense,” UCLA linebacker Jalen Woods said. “I feel like we did a better job in the half of everybody running to the ball.” “We’ve got three more games left, so every game we’re playing like it’s our last,” Woods said. “Everyone’s giving 100% effort and no one’s quitting on the team.”

Bruins (3-6,3-3) trailed the entire game but never allowed the Cornhuskers (7-3, 4-3) to feel comfortable with their lead, as both teams possessed the ball for the same amount of time, 30 minutes.

UCLA will continue battling through this season woes on the road as they travel to Columbus, Ohio against the No. 1 Ohio State in hopes to keep their bowl games chance alive, beginning with an upset for another nationally televised game on Saturday, Nov. 15.

No. 19 USC remained in the College Football Playoff picture with a 38-17 win over Northwestern Friday night at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.

Los Angeles, CA – Friday was the first meeting between the two teams since the 1996 Rose Bowl, a game USC won 41-32. The 1996 Rose Bowl MVP Keyshawn Johnson led USC out of the tunnel before Friday night’s contest.

“Awesome, awesome win. Privately, we were excited about the challenge that this became with flipping time zones,” USC coach Lincoln Riley said. “Obviously, it was a tough battle in Lincoln just a few days ago, and then having to turn over and play a really good football team coming off a bye week. I felt like the last few games would be a really important stretch for this season, and it’s cool to see our guys respond.”

USC got on the board first with a Jaydon Maiava 7-yard pass to Makai Lemon for a 7-0 lead. Northewestern answered with a Preston Stone 4-yard touchdown pass to Griffin Wilde with 45 seconds left in the first quarter.

Lemon had a career-high 161 receiving yards and matched his career-high receptions with 11. It was his fourth 100 plus yard receiving game of the season, surpassing his previous career high of 158 yards against Georgia Southern (Sept. 6).

The Trojans came right back with a 9-play, 58-yard drive that was capped by a Maiava 6-yard touchdown run to give USC a 14-7 lead in the second quarter. The Wildcats stormed back to tie it 14-14 with a Caleb Komolafe 2-yard touchdown run.

Northwestern missed an opportunity to take the lead before halftime when Maiava was intercepted by Najee Story at the Trojans 25. He returned it and was headed towards the end zone when Maiava laid a hit on him that jarred the ball loose at the 1-yard line. The ball went out of bounce resulting in a touchback.

“We got the look we wanted first to play. So I thought getting back to Lem (Makai Lemon, WR) was the right read, so I made the throw, and I don’t even know where he (DL Najee Story) came from, honestly,” Maiava said. “I just saw him running with the ball. Seeing him down the sideline, I thought I should just go out there and sacrifice my body for my brothers and to potentially get the ball back.”

On the next play, King MIller got looose for a 55-yard run. Miller scored on the ensuing play with a 12-yard run to give USC a 21-14 lead before halftime. Miller finished with 127 rushing yards.

USC’s defense forced a punt at the beginning of the third quarter and the Trojans scored on the following drive with another sensational 10-yard reception by Ja’kobi Lane in the end zone.

The USC defense held Northwestern to just three points in the second half, marking the second straight game the Trojans have held an opponent to three points in the second half after doing the same against Nebraska last week.

Northwestern added a field goal before Lemon scored on a 4-yard run to give USC a 35-17 lead in the fourth quarter.

Up next for USC is a home game against Iowa on Saturday, Nov.15.

LOS ANGELES , CA — The No. 3 UCLA women’s basketball team opened its season at home in dominant fashion on Thursday night, cruising past UC Santa Barbara 87–50 at Pauley Pavilion.

The Bruins wasted no time asserting control, racing to a double-digit lead midway through the first quarter behind their trademark defensive intensity and fast-paced offense. UCLA forced 17 turnovers and turned them into 24 points, that helped build a 51–26 advantage at the break.

“A lot of people were scared to play us,” said UCLA coach Cori Close, “this was the hardest year to schedule opponents.”

Senior guard Kiki Rice led the charge with 20 points and 8 assists, while Lauren Betts, in her final season in Westwood, added 12 points and 7 rebounds under multiple double and triple team. Senior guard Gabriela Jaquez impressed contributing 31 points and 6 boards in 30 minutes.

UCLA’s depth proved overwhelming for the visiting Gauchos, who struggled to find rhythm against the Bruins length and athleticism. UC Santa Barbara was led by Olivia Bradley, who scored 11 points, but the Gauchos shot just 36% from the field and were out-rebounded 39-17.

The Bruins dominated the paint, outscoring UCSB 34-30 inside.

“We made some adjustments in the second half, we need to get better on the defensive today.” said Close.

With the win, UCLA improved to 2–0 on the season and extended its home winning streak to 7 games. The Bruins now turn their attention to a marquee nonconference matchup against Oklahoma on Monday November 10.

UC Santa Barbara fell to 1–1 and will look to regroup when it travels to Seattle Redhawks Sunday November 9th.

San Diego State takes down Wyoming for homecoming

SAN DIEGO, CA – Behind another dominant defensive showing and a career night from sophomore running back Lucky Sutton, the San Diego State Aztecs extended their winning streak to six games with a 24-7 Homecoming victory over Wyoming on Saturday night at Snapdragon Stadium.

Sutton ran for a career-high 158 yards, including a game-sealing 50-yard touchdown late in the fourth quarter that put the Aztecs (7–1, 4–0 MW) comfortably ahead. It marked the second straight week Sutton has set a career rushing high after running for 131 yards in last week’s shutout at Fresno State. The San Diego native now has four 100-yard games this season and 289 rushing yards with two touchdowns in his last two contests.

“Good win, another dominant performance by the defense. Aside from that opening drive, I think Wyoming had 49 yards in the second half, which is outstanding,” said head coach Sean Lewis, “Another great step by our players.”

Defense Dominates Once Again

After allowing an early touchdown drive, the Aztec defense clamped down for the remainder of the game, forcing four turnovers and holding the Cowboys (4–5, 2–3 MW) to just 110 total yards after their opening possession. Wyoming failed to score again following its first-quarter touchdown.

Linebacker Owen Chambliss led the defensive effort with a career-high 13 tackles, while Trey White added two sacks to continue his strong campaign as the Mountain West preseason Defensive Player of the Year.

The Aztecs’ defense has now limited opponents to an average of 7.3 points per game over their six-game winning streak, outscoring them 176–44 during that span.

Aztecs Capitalize on Turnovers

San Diego State turned two first-half interceptions into points.

In the first quarter, Brice Phillips picked off a pass to give SDSU possession at the Wyoming 24-yard line. Quarterback Jayden Denegal quickly connected with Byron Cardwell Jr. for a touchdown to tie the game at 7–7.

Early in the second quarter, Dwayne McDougle intercepted another Cowboy pass, setting up a 34-yard field goal by Gabe Plascencia to give the Aztecs a 10–7 lead they would not relinquish.

Later in the half, Jordan Napier scored on a 7-yard rushing touchdown, his first career rushing score, to make it 17–7. Napier has now scored in three different ways for the Aztecs — rushing, receiving, and punt return — and even threw for a touchdown last season.

Sutton’s Late Heroics Seal It

After several defensive stands and missed field goals by Wyoming, the Aztecs turned to Sutton to close the game. With under three minutes remaining, facing 1st-and-15, Sutton broke free for a 50-yard touchdown run, the longest of his career, bringing the Homecoming crowd to its feet and putting the game out of reach at 24–7.

Denegal, returning from injury, completed 11 of 22 passes for 194 yards and one touchdown, while guiding SDSU’s balanced attack.

Home Sweet Home

The win keeps San Diego State undefeated at home (4–0) this season, where they’ve outscored opponents 145–31. The Aztecs’ victory also places them in sole possession of first place in the Mountain West during their final season in the conference.

SDSU’s 4–0 start in league play marks just the third time in program history they’ve achieved that milestone (2015 and 2016), both previous seasons culminating in Mountain West championships.

“There’s going to be lots of cleanup this week, because we have to go play a really good Hawaii team and
other future opponents,” said coach Lewis.

Up Next

San Diego State continues its pursuit of another conference title with two more home games remaining at Snapdragon Stadium, where the Aztecs have proven nearly unbeatable this season.

Colorado Buffaloes gets Blown out by Arizona 52-17

Boulder, CU- The 2025 Colorado football team is 3-6 after a blowout loss to Arizona after a 53-7 loss to Utah last week. The Buffaloes are also 1-3 for their last four games.

Head coach Deon Sanders, in an unprecedented move for the season, made himself the only person to talk to the media at the end of the game.

“No one will be available tonight, it’s just me,” he said. “Don’t attack the coordinators; come at me. Don’t attack the players; come at me. This has nothing to do with them; it has everything to do with me.”

On Saturday night at Folsom, the Buffaloes failed on all cylinders, falling 17-0 eight minutes in and 38-7 by halftime.

Colorado’s first touchdown was off a Kaidon Salter led drive. Throughout the season, Salter has started the majority of games, but the Buffaloes have switched to their second and third strings in attempts to find offensive success, a strategy Colorado tried against Arizona.

Overall, the offense had a season-high five turnovers and a season-high 13 penalties for 105 yards. Salter contributed two of those turnovers off an interception and fumble and finished the game with 49 yards passing. The defense didn’t fare much better and allowed Arizona to end the game with 417 yards and over 50 offensive points.

“We’re not executing, and that’s on me. I know this team personally, I know them intimately,” Sanders said. “And they don’t quit. I know when a player quits. I know that when I see it, and I haven’t seen it.”

Five-star freshman quarterback JuJu Lewis provided some relief with a 59-yard touchdown pass to Omarian Miller, to give Colorado their second and final touchdown of the game.

Arizona responded with a four play, 75-yard drive in the fourth quarter, sealing any opportunity for Colorado to comeback.

Sanders claims he’s struggling to see where the disconnect comes in between his team during the week at practice and during games. “It’s very frustrating not being able to put your finger on it,” he said. “Thinking that you’ve got it and you don’t is the hard part. Thinking you’re going to see it, and that you’re doing the right things, but you’re not. That’s on me”

Colorado heads to West Virginia next Saturday at 10 a.m. mountain time.

Oregon grinds out a victory over Wisconsin

Eugene, OR- Oregon handles Wisconsin at home in their Grateful Dead inspired uniforms. The Badgers withstood all of the Ducks punches in the first half till last drive of the half giving up a 3-yard touchdown.

The Ducks were not explosive on the stat sheet with quarterback Dante Moore throwing for only 86 yards on 9-16 attempts. It was enough to get a much-needed victory.

This was an old school Big 10 slug fest, that had running back Jordon Davison gain 102 yards on 16 carries and 2 of Oregon’s touchdowns for the game. Getting in the endzone in both halves on for 3 yards and big 20-yard touchdown in 2^nd half to stretch the lead to 14-0.

“Defense played lights out today,” said Oregon coach Dan Lanning, “They did really good job controlling Wisconsin today.”

Wisconsin defense stepped up big to start off the game and overcome an onside kick that was lost but even with the extra possession the Duck didn’t turn that into points. Mason Posa (8) was all over the field for the Badgers finishing with 8 tackles.

The Badgers defense was able to add pressure most of the game with 4 sacks by Ben Barten, Mason Reiger, Sebastian Cheeks and Aaron Witt.

With all that pressure by the Badgers when Oregon reached the red zone in the 4th quarter, they use their opponent’s aggressiveness. The play action pass to the big fella #78 Gernorris Wilson with 1-yard touchdown catch to push the lead to 21-0.

Today’s victory came at a cost losing Moore in the 3^rd quarter due to nose injury that should just be for today’s contest.

Oregon coach Lanning said after the game that Moore “got dinged” in the nose on a tackle, but should be in “great shape.”

“I think we could have pushed to get him back in, but he’s going to be good,” he said. “He had a bloody nose, he got hit pretty good, but it looks like he’s in great shape.”

Wisconsin will battle back and take this moral victory of getting a late touchdown in the 4^th quarter. They will look to rest up and get two weeks to prepare for the Washington Huskies who will come intown on Nov 8^th after the bye week.

Oregon will take this bye week to get sharp for this last drive of the season, the Ducks will travel to Iowa on Nov 8^th.

Bruins Blown Away in Bloomington: UCLA Crushed 56–6 by No. 2 Hoosiers

October 25, 2025

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — What began as a chance for UCLA to prove itself on the national stage turned into a humbling lesson in Bloomington. The Bruins were steamrolled by No. 2 Indiana, 56–6, as interim head coach Tim Skipper’s hot streak cooled dramatically against one of the nation’s elite defenses.

It went wrong from the very start. On the opening play, quarterback Nico Iamaleava was sacked. On the next, he was picked off by Hoosier senior linebacker Aiden Fisher, who raced it back for a touchdown. The tone was set — and the Bruins never recovered.

Iamaleava finished 13-of-27 for 113 yards and two interceptions, unable to find any rhythm as the Hoosiers’ front seven lived in the backfield. UCLA mustered only three points in the first half and just six total, while Indiana turned two early turnovers into quick scores to jump out to a 35–3 halftime lead.

Defensively, the Bruins showed brief fight — a batted-ball interception and a couple of early stands — but missed tackles and poor containment on third downs kept the Hoosiers rolling. A Jalen Berger fumble in the second quarter added to UCLA’s struggles, and by halftime, the game was effectively over.

Jalen Woods provided the lone spark for the Bruins, tallying six tackles for loss, three sacks, and a forced fumble, but the defense couldn’t contain Indiana’s balance or tempo. UCLA finished 1-for-10 on third down, gained under 100 yards through three quarters, and gave up six touchdowns before adding a late field goal.

IU head coach Curt Cignetti had promised aggression before kickoff — “We don’t play scared, we attack” — and his team delivered exactly that. The Hoosiers’ relentless defense and opportunistic offense justified their lofty ranking.

Rico Flores Jr. led UCLA with 50 receiving yards on four catches, but it was far from enough to make a dent against an IU team firing on all cylinders.

D. Wright Take Away:

UCLA (3–2) limps into a bye week searching for answers after one of its worst showings of the season. The Bruins will look to regroup before hosting Nebraska, a game that offers a chance to reset and rebuild momentum. Expect both Mendoza brothers to factor heavily — Fernando Mendoza impressed in limited duty, going 15-for-22 with 168 yards, three passing touchdowns, and one rushing score. If the Bruins are going to bounce back, that’s where it starts.
