Chesney’s Debut at the Rose Bowl | UCLA Bruins Football News

Bob Chesney makes his debut as UCLA’s head coach in a high-stakes home opener against San Diego State, both teams chasing their first 2-0 start. The Bruins dominated the ground game with 277 rushing yards in their opener but struggled with discipline, committing 12 penalties for 110 yards. Quarterback Nico Iamaleava showed flashes but needs more consistency, especially after throwing an interception. The defense impressed with three turnovers but must tighten up against Jayden Denegal. With students still away and attendance uncertain, the Rose Bowl’s energy could be pivotal as UCLA kicks off a new era.
