Quarterbacks: B+

Despite not living up to the hopes of a Heisman campaign, Brett Hundley seemed to shatter expectations even though he did not bring home the holiest of hardware. In the 12 games of the regular season, he managed to captured a few UCLA records including total yards and total passing touchdowns. In addition, he was named to the All-Pac-12 Second Team offense. Though his season was marred by less-than-stellar games against Utah, Oregon and Stanford, he did manage to get UCLA to their third straight 9-win season, which is the first time that has happened in UCLA history.

Though Hundley played in a majority of the games this season, we also want to give some love to back-up QB Jerry Neuheisel who had a special moment in the game against Texas when he connected with WR Jordan Payton for the game-winning touchdown after Hundley had left the game with a hyper-extended elbow.

It has been really good to have a quarterback (and back-up) that did so much for UCLA this season and as it looks, that culture will surely continue.
