COLO vs. UCLA: Live updates, score, results, highlights, for Saturday's NCAAF game

Through 3 Quarters

Both the Colorado Buffaloes and the UCLA Bruins have kept the scorekeepers busy with 80 between them three quarters in. Sitting on a score of 45-35, Colorado has looked like the better team out there today, but there's still one more quarter to play. RB Jarek Broussard has led the way so far for the Buffaloes, as he has rushed for three TDs and 150 yards on 24 carries.

The Colorado defense has been merciless to QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson and currently has four sacks accrued. That goes a long way towards explaining why Colorado has a good chance of pulling out a victory.

What to Know

The UCLA Bruins and the Colorado Buffaloes are opening their 2020 seasons against one another at 7 p.m. ET Saturday at Folsom Field. Last year was nothing to brag about for UCLA (4-8), so the team is looking forward to a new start. Colorado struggled last season, too, ending up 5-7.

A couple last-season defensive stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: The Bruins ranked second worst in the nation with respect to passing yards allowed per game last year, where the squad gave up 310.8 on average. The Buffaloes experienced some passing struggles of their own as they were eighth worst when it came to passing yards allowed per game last season, with the squad giving up 288.3 on average. It's possible one of these Achilles' heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.

UCLA is the favorite in this one, with an expected 5.5-point margin of victory. A victory is hardly a sure thing, especially this early in the season, so expect a good game.
