Perkins Leads UCLA Over UNLV To Improve To 2-0
LAS VEGAS (AP) — Paul Perkins ran for 151 yards and two touchdowns, Josh Rosen threw for another score and No. 13 UCLA rolled to a 37-3 victory over UNLV on Saturday night.
Rosen completed 22 of 42 passes for 223 yards as the Bruins (2-0) piled up 526 yards in all, the second consecutive week UNLV's defense allowed more than 500.
After the first two games of his college career, Rosen is 50 of 77 for 574 yards and four touchdowns. His performance against Virginia last week earned him the Walter Camp National Player of the Week award on offense.
UCLA has won 13 of its last 14 non-conference games — and 10 straight since losing to Baylor in the 2012 Holiday Bowl.
The Bruins have won all 11 regular-season non-conference games under fourth-year coach Jim Mora, with an average margin of victory of 21.4 points.
