No. 25 UCLA Bruins at Colorado Buffaloes

Brett Hundley threw for 330 yards and two scores last weekend in a win at California. The junior quarterback also scrambled for 94 more yards and another score. Hundley and No. 25 UCLA will play at CU on Saturday in Boulder. “Our expectations of him are maybe a little unrealistic, off the charts,” UCLA head coach Jim Mora said. “We just kind of take them for granted.”

Time: 12:07 p.m. Saturday, Pac-12 Network; KRSJ 100.5 FM.

Line: UCLA by 13½.

Series Record: UCLA leads 7-2.
