Dorian Thompson-Robinson passes for 315 yards and three touchdowns and runs for another score as the unbeaten Bruins open a big lead then hold off the Huskies, 40-32.
PASADENA — Most of the talk around the Pac-12 this week was about Washington quarterback Michael Penix Jr., and how he was leading the nation’s top offense into the Rose Bowl against the Bruins. The other quarterback on the field Friday night had other thoughts.
On Thompson-Robinson’s rushing touchdown, a 2-yarder that extended the Bruins’ lead to 33-10 in the third quarter, the quarterback made such a sudden stutter-step that two defenders for Washington collided with each other, remaining down at the goal line as UCLA celebrated an impending win. UCLA forced three turnovers in the first half – two interceptions and a safety – which led to nine points. Laiatu Latu recorded the first sack of the season against Penix, forcing a 9-yard loss on a third down play in the second quarter that held the Huskies’ drive to a field goal.
