UCLA has to replace record-breaking QB Brett Hundley with promising freshman Josh Rosen. Rosen looked like a poised veteran in the opener vs. Virginia, completing 28 of 35 passes for 351 yards and three TDs. UNLV made a shocking hire when they opted for Bishop Gorman High School's highly successful Tony Sanchez. While his debut was an eight point loss to MAC Conference's Northern Illinois, it came as a better than 21 point underdog, and a game they led 17-3 at one point. The Rebels were pretty much even in the yardage battle, and show they are capable with close to 500 yards of offense, and as a better than four TD dog, they have at least back door potential here if not more. UCLA is in a tough spot as they are off a big game vs. Virginia, and have BYU on deck before starting conference play, so this very well could be a snoozer for the Bruins, and a tough spot to cover a huge number. Take the points on UNLV.
