UCLA 52, Washington 28 November 15 The Rose Bowl In a highly anticipated battle between two of the Pac-10's top teams, the Bruins prevailed, holding Washington's high-powered offense to just 83 yards in the second half. The Huskies struck first as Maurice Shaw established the running game early with a 47-yard TD run to put the Dawgs up 7-0 in the first quarter. However, the Bruins answered with 28 second-quarter points including two touchdown passes from Cade McNown to Jim McElroy (47 yards) and Skip Hicks (67 yards). In addition, Hicks added a pair of two-yard TD runs, on his way to finishing with 147 yards and three touchdowns. The Bruins were up 28-20 at the half. UCLA continued to score in the second half, reeling off 24 unanswered points, including a pair of TD trotts by Hicks. Washington failed to score until Brock Huard dove in from two yards out with 6:31 remaining in the fourth quarter. The Huskies converted a two-point conversion as Huard threw to Jason Harris for the final score of the game. The 52 points Washington allowed was the most by an opponent all season. With Rashaan Shehee out with a knee injury for the second straight week, Washington's rushing attack was limited. Jason Harris led the Huskies with 76 yards on 10 carries. Huard finished the day 25 for 37 for 271 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions. It marked the first time that a Jim Lambright team had lost back-to-back games, and gave the Huskies a 7-3 record for the season. The Huskies surrrendered 565 yards of offense to a Bruin offense that did everything right. Cade McNown finished with 320 yards passing and three touchdown passes, hitting on 16 of 23 attempts. Jerry Jensen led the Huskies defensively with 10 tackles, while Tony Parrish added nine more in the secondary. Scoring Summary
