Brehaut starting v. Washington State

UCLA head coach Rick Neuheisel has decided to go with Richard Brehaut as starting quarterback today against Washington State, Brehaut's first career start.

Brehaut worked on his snaps with Ryan Taylor during pre-game warmups, while Kevin Prince - nursing a sore knee suffered in a 34-12 Week 4 win at Texas - worked with Kody Innes.

Brehaut has been throwing well, as usual, but we'll see how he leads the offense.

In mop-up duty against Stanford, Brehaut completed 5-of-9 passes for 42 yards and an interception in a little over one quarter. For his career, Brehaut is 16-of-26 for 166 yards and an interception.
