The Colorado Buffaloes faced off against the No. 23 UCLA Bruins in a road contest. Colorado started strong with an impressive opening drive, making a 31-yard field goal to take a 3-0 lead. They extended their lead to 6-0 with another field goal. UCLA struggled on offense, only managing to get one first down before punting. In the second quarter, UCLA responded with a 3-yard touchdown pass from Ethan Garbers to Carson Steele, taking a 7-6 lead. Both teams had missed field goal attempts, but UCLA held on to win 7-6.
UCLA has its 24 yard FG attempt bounce off the upright... no good. #CUBuffs trail 7-6 and take over at the UCLA 20 with 1:37 left in the first half.
UCLA settles for a field goal. It bounced off the pole. No good. The Bruins still lead Colorado 7-6 with 1:37 left in the game.

UCLA's 24-yard FG attempt hits the uprights. Score remains Iowa 7, Colorado 6. Ooops, I mean, UCLA 7, Colorado 6 #cubuffs
UCLA field goal off left upright.
Ethan Garbers three-yard TD pass to Carson Steele coming out of the T formation. Should be the TD formation. UCLA edges ahead 7-6 early in second quarter.
Garbers connects with Steele for a 3-yard TD pass. Bruins hit the PAT. UCLA 7, Colorado 6, 14:19 to go in the 2nd #cubuffs
First quarter ends with Colorado up 6-0 and UCLA has the ball second and goal at the Buffaloes' 8-yard line.
End of the 1st: Colorado 6, No. 23 UCLA 0. #cubuffs
UCLA gets one first down, but then 1 yard in 3 plays and will punt #cubuffs
Alejandro Mata makes a 39-yard FG from the left hash, giving the #CUBuffs an early 6-0 lead. Mata is now 6-of-7 on FGs this season.
Colorado gets another field goal, but all things considered UCLA still in great shape down 6-0.
Mata with a 39-yard FG. Colorado 6, UCLA 0, 7:44 to go in the 1st quarter #cubuffs
#CUBuffs drive 62 yards to open the game before stalling out in the red zone. Alejandro Mata makes a 31-yard FG from a right hash with a UCLA defender flying by right in front of him. Hard to believe it wasn't blocked.
Colorado gets to the UCLA 13 on an impressive opening drive before the Bruins' defense stiffens. Buffaloes somehow make a 31-yard field goal past a lunging Bruin.
Alejandro Mata with a 31-yard FG to get Colorado on the board, up 3-0. I have no idea how that wasn't blocked, as the UCLA defender flew right in front of Mata. #cubuffs
Colorado settles for a field goal. UCLA's Kamari Ramsey almost blocked the kick. The Buffaloes lead UCLA 3-0 with 10:46 left in the first half.
UCLA wins the coin toss. First time Colorado has lost the toss this year. Bruins will kickoff and the #cubuffs will start with the ball.
