Maryland started to drive before the half and UCLA got a huge forced fumble to stall their drive. UCLA then turned the ball right back over as they were driving down the field. Teams seem to be trading bad plays for bad plays.

There is definitely room for growth to open up the offense more in the second half. Malik Washington will not be contained the entire game. UCLA will need to take advantage if they want to win this game and extend their winning streak to three games.
UCLA leads 7-3 heading into halftime. Second half of Maryland vs UCLA up next!
