Ethan Garbers came in after Dorian Thompson-Robinson suffered an ankle injury midway through the Bruins' fourth drive early in the second quarter. The redshirt sophomore directed scoring drives in five of seven possessions (four TDs, one field goal).
Backup quarterback Ethan Garbers threw for 164 yards and ran for a pair of touchdowns, and UCLA improved to 2-0 for the second consecutive year with a 45-7 rout of Alabama State on Saturday.
"We got an opportunity to play a lot of guys," coach Chip Kelly said."You learn by doing, and we had some guys that got valuable playing experience in a college football game with referees, with ramifications if you make a mistake." Garbers' only mistake came in the fourth quarter, when he was intercepted by Adrian Maddox in the end zone on third and goal at the ASU 5 on a pass intended for Josiah Norwood.
"Obviously we rotated a lot, had a lot of guys in the game, so being able to share the love I think was the best thing about today," linebacker Bo Calvert said."Being able to see see guys come in that don't have the spotlight as much, being able to see those guys make plays was awesome."
