For UCLA defense, looks can be deceiving (106 clicks)
The 391 passing yards by BYU quarterback Max Hall marked the eighth highest total ever against UCLA, knocking former Stanford quarterback Guy Benjamin (378 yards) from the top 10. Interestingly, though, the Bruins’ pass defense numbers overall aren’t all that much different than a year ago when they were fourth in the Pac-10 in passing efficiency defense.
