UCLA defeats San Diego State 28-10 at home

UCLA improved to 2-0 on the season with a 28-10 home victory against San Diego State in Pasadena on Saturday. The Bruins struggled offensively for much of the contest, entering halftime scoreless and managing only seven points through the first three quarters. A strong fourth-quarter performance ultimately secured the win for the Bruins, who were playing without wide receiver Landon Ellis and lost wideout Mikey Matthews to injury during the first half. Semaj Morgan contributed to the effort with key receptions that helped set up two touchdown runs by Wayne Knight. Head coach Bob Chesney noted that the defense provided critical support throughout the game while the team worked to overcome early offensive struggles. UCLA now transitions to Big Ten Conference play for their Week 3 matchup.
