UCLA (3-0) got the chance to drive for a game-winning field goal because it was able to diagnose and blow up a fake field goal attempt.
Facing fourth-and-2 on the UCLA 22, South Alabama lined up for a 39-yard attempt by Diego Guajardo. Instead of allowing the junior a chance to extend the lead to five, coach Kane Wommack rolled the dice.
"My eyes lit up when they hiked it and number 10 was looking for somebody to pass the ball to," he said."The only thing that was on my mind was 'go get him.' This could be a chance to change the game, and that's what happened, we changed the game."
