Overview

• Nico Iamaleava accounted for five touchdowns with 166 yards passing and 128 rushing as UCLA never trailed after an opening-drive score and surprise onside kick.
• The Bruins controlled the game with 39:17 of possession, a 435-357 yardage edge, and a 10-of-16 mark on third down against a reeling Penn State defense.
• Penn State had a final chance after stopping UCLA on fourth-and-inches, reaching the Bruins’ 9-yard line before Drew Allar was tackled on fourth-and-2 with about 40 seconds left; UCLA then took an intentional safety.
• The Nittany Lions entered as roughly 24.5-point favorites; the defeat snapped their 34-game win streak against unranked teams and marked the first win by an 0-4 team over a top-10 opponent since 1985.
• Penn State falls to 3-2 (0-2 Big Ten) as fan pressure mounts on Franklin and the team’s College Football Playoff resume takes a major hit, with Northwestern up next.
