The UCLA Bruins (2-4, 2-1 Big Ten) are one of the hottest teams in college football, and are looking to make it three in a row against the Maryland Terrapins, who are reeling after two consecutive losses.

The Rose Bowl matchup features two dynamic quarterbacks -- Nico Iamaleava and Malik Washington. As we get into our weekly game previews, let's break down the matchup under center.
