Bruins Defense and Run Game Dominate | UCLA Bruins Football News

The Bruins clawed their way to a gritty win over San Diego State, turning things around after a scoreless halftime. Defense dominated, shutting down the Aztecs’ QB with just 45 yards passing and forcing two passes under 10 yards. Safety Malik Hartford was everywhere, while the run game delivered again—Wayne Knight exploded for 97 yards and three TDs, and Jaivian Thomas added his own score. The linebacker duo of Sammy Omosigho and Jalen Woods stole the show: Woods racked up nine tackles, a sack, and an interception. This unit is firing on all cylinders—and it’s shaping up to be a season-defining force. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
