UCLA Football: Rick Neuheisel Reacts To Three Kevin Prince Interceptions Against Texas

Kevin Prince proved he was healthy in practice leading into the game on Saturday afternoon against the Texas Longhorns, earning the start. Yet, after three interceptions in the first quarter, Prince was benched and never saw action again in UCLA's 49-20 loss. It's safe to say Richard Brehaut now sits atop the depth chart for the UCLA Bruins.

Head coach Rick Neuheisel tabbed Prince, hoping to replicate their success on the ground in last year's 34-12 win over Texas, when UCLA ran for 264 yards. "I felt like we could run the ball. Last year, we beat Texas throwing, I think, nine passes. I thought we could run and control the ball. Unfortunately, we threw three interceptions in the first quarter. It's disappointing. We will try and grow from it and work to be better the next time out," Neuheisel said after the game.

Brehaut completed eight of 19 passes for 150 yards in relief of Prince, and on the season has completed 38 of 68 passes for 559 yards and three touchdowns, with no interceptions. "I thought Richard [Brehaut] played well. I'm anxious to look at the tape. He settled the offense down. He has surged to the lead, no question," Neuheisel said.

UCLA Vs. Texas: Bruins Blown Out By Texas 49-20

The UCLA Bruins fell behind 21-0 early, and never recovered as they were blown out at home 49-20 by the Texas Longhorns at The Rose Bowl on Saturday afternoon in Pasadena. Kevin Prince got the start at quarterback for UCLA, but he was benched after throwing three interceptions in the first quarter.

Richard Brehaut wasn't much better, completing eight of 19 passes for 150 yards, but at least he didn't throw any interceptions. Johnathan Franklin rushed for 58 yards on 15 carries to lead the Bruins. Derrick Coleman had 47 yards on the ground as well for UCLA.

Malcolm Brown rushed for 110 yards on 22 carries with one touchdown, and Foswhitt Whittaker rushed for 63 yards and two scores for Texas. Quarterback Case McCoy completed 12 of 15 passes for 168 yards and two touchdowns for Texas.

UCLA Vs. Texas Score Update: Bruins Trail 42-20 Heading Into Fourth Quarter

The UCLA Bruins trail the No. 23 Texas Longhorns 42-20 at the end of the third quarter. The Bruins surrendered two touchdowns in the third quarter.

UCLA recorded a 49-yard field goal by Jeff Locke on the opening drive of the third quarter to pull within 28-13, but Texas struck back with five-yard touchdown pass from Jaxon Shipley to D.J. Grant.

On the following drive, the Bruins drove 55 yards to score a touchdown. Running back Derrick Coleman took over in the red zone, taking the last three UCLA snaps and ending the drive with a one-yard touchdown.

Texas came right back and hit the Bruins with a six-play scoring drive. The Bruins defense failed to stop the Longhorns when Foswhitt Whitaker rushed for a 36-yard touchdown.

UCLA trails 42-20 and opens the fourth quarter at around midfield. Quarterback Richard Brehaut has completed five of 11 passes for 117 yards so far. Coleman has rushed for 57 yards and two touchdowns on seven carries.

UCLA Vs. Texas: Kevin Prince Benched After Three Interceptions In First Quarter

In last season's 34-12 win over the Texas Longhorns in Austin, the UCLA Bruins threw only nine passes, including eight by Kevin Prince. In the first quarter on Saturday afternoon at the Rose Bowl, Prince threw seven passes, and three of those were intercepted, and he has been benched in favor of Richard Brehaut. Texas leads UCLA 21-0 early in the second quarter.

Prince completed three passes for 26 yards, and ran for 26 more, but the three interceptions were killers. Down 7-0, the Bruins were forced to punt, but a fumble on the return by Jaxon Shipley gave UCLA the ball in the red zone. Then, on a third-and-seven play within field goal range, Texas blitzed and Prince threw an ill-advised pass that was tipped for his second interception of the quarter.

Prince's final pass of the quarter was picked off by Eyron Barnett at the Texas 44-yard line, and the Longhorns opened the second quarter with a 56-yard drive to go up 21-0.

Texas vs. UCLA: Case McCoy Delivers Early For Longhorns

Case McCoy earned the first start of his career on Saturday after a strong performance last weekend against BYU. A road game in the Rose Bowl can be a daunting experience for a young player, especially when you're the younger brother of Longhorn legend Colt McCoy.

Yet on the second Texas possession of the game, McCoy showed the country why he has been given the opportunity to start against UCLA. McCoy sensed pressure and ran five steps to his right before throwing across his body, hitting a wide open D.J. Grant in stride for a 45-yard touchdown pass to give Texas a 7-0 lead in the first quarter.

McCoy, just a sophomore, has a lot of poise under fire in the pocket. Kevin Prince has to find more time to go through his reads, as Texas is getting to the quarterback fairly quickly in the first quarter of play.

UCLA Vs. Texas: Kevin Prince Starts At Quarterback For Bruins

The UCLA Bruins have Kevin Prince under center to start their game against the Texas Longhorns Saturday afternoon at the Rose Bowl. Prince was an integral part of last season's 34-12 Bruins' win in Austin, running for 50 yards. He ran for one touchdown and threw for another. Prince only threw eight passes for 27 yards in the win, but the Bruins were so dominant on the ground it didn't matter.

Prince missed last week against San Jose State while recovering from a concussion he received in the opening game in Houston. "Kevin's healthy. We're excited about what he brings to the offense," head coach Rick Neuheisel said before the game.

Richard Brehaut has completed 29 of 49 passes this season for 409 yards, with three touchdowns and no interceptions. He has also rushed for 122 yards, and wants to play. "Richard is chomping at the bit," Neuheisel said in a sideline interview on ABC before the game.  "We might need both of them to help us win."

UCLA Vs. Texas: Keys To The Game

The UCLA Bruins host the No. 23 Texas Longhorns on Saturday at the Rose Bowl, looking for a repeat of 2010. The Bruins won last year in Austin thanks to a strong ground game, and not surprisingly the running game will be key for both teams on Saturday.

UCLA has two quarterbacks to deal with in Kevin Prince and Richard Brehaut, but the Texas Longhorns have split time at the position among Garrett Gilbert, Case McCoy, and David Ash. The true freshman Ash is the running quarterback of the three, as Peter Bean of Burnt Orange Nation explains:

Before the fourth quarter of both games so far this season, the most effective rushing attack for Texas has been out of the David Ash package with the true freshman typically running the zone read or speed option with DJ Monroe. In the triple option look in that package, the Longhorns still haven't run the dive to Fozzy Whittaker yet -- and might want to consider using Malcolm Brown, Cody Johnson, or Joe Bergeron in that role instead -- to keep the linebackers inside of the tackles.

The Bruins bombarded the Longhorns last year with 264 rushing yards in their 34-12 victory, and will need a similar ground attack on Saturday. UCLA will need both Johnathan Franklin and Derrick Coleman to produce like last year, when they combined for 212 yards and a pair of touchdowns. After rushing for 128 yards in the season opener against Houston, Franklin rushed for 81 yards against San Jose State. Coleman picked up the slack against the Spartans with 135 rushing yards on 14 carries. Texas has allowed just 86.5 rushing yards per game in their first two games this season, which is 31st in the NCAA.

Rick Neuheisel Won't Name Starter For Saturday's Matchup With Texas

UCLA coach Rick Neuheisel made it clear at practice on Thursday that quarterback Kevin Prince is ‘100 percent’ healthy and ready to go on Saturday against Texas, but won’t back any definitive statements about who will be under center come kickoff.

"He’s 100 percent and he’s ready to go," Neuheisel said. "So is Richard [Brehaut] and we’ll have them both available."

Prince was the starter week one against Houston, but left the game after taking a hard knock in the second quarter, effectively removing him from the rest of that game as well as last week’s meeting with San Jose State. Prince himself admitted earlier in the week that he wasn’t at 100 percent, but went through full rpactices everyday anyway, finally looking like his old self once again come Wednesday’s practice.

As for Brehaut, he threw for 409 yards and three TDs while filling in for Prince, adding another 131 yards and a touchdown rushing as well. Prince was the starter last season during the Bruins 34-12 win in Austin, and will bring the experience and confidence from that game into this year’s meeting if he plays.

Maybe Rick is simply trying not to show his hand heading into their meeting with the Longhorns at the Rose Bowl, or maybe he isn’t completely convinced one way or the other on who to start. Either way both of them are ready to go, giving the Longhorns two different styles of QB to prepare for heading into Saturday.
