Running game
UCLA called 46 running plays (there were three sacks and a kneel down that go into the final figure) and netted 155 yards on those plays. Given Oregon State's defense strong defense, and the Bruins playing on the road, I asked UCLA coach Karl Dorrell if he was pleased with number of attempts, despite the low average per carry.
"We just wanted to put up production. That's the biggest thing,'' Dorrell said. "It wasn't a number that was set, or anything like that. We wanted to be able to be patient with the run game, knowing that this was a good defense and it's not going to be as easy as it's been in the past, and we wanted to be effective with our throwing game."

ReelBruin: You almost have it right. If the first two runs leaves you with 3rd and long, you then run the draw. (or the screen play!)
