Olson Fuels Blowout of Stanford
Pasadena, CA - When Olson is hot, he really get's hot. The senior QB completed 22-27 passes for 341 yards and 5 touchdowns. He also only threw 1 interception. This stat line is the reason for UCLA's thumping of Stanford 45-20. The game was never in doubt after the 1st quarter ended in a 7-7 tie.
The big news for the Bruins was when Aaron Ware left the game midway through the second quarter with a bruised sternum. At that point he had already accumulated 8 tackles and 1 sack but many were wondering if the defense could hold without their anchor. Redshirt Freshmen Glenn Love filled in for Ware wonderfully, equalling Ware's stat line of 8 tackles and 1 sack.
The Bruins face a struggling Cal team up north next week and expect a tough battle despite the Golden Bear's losing record.
