Golden Gophers burrow Bruins’ lead with last-minute touchdown in Rose Bowl loss

date: 2024-10-13, from: The Daily Bruin (UCLA Student Newspaper)

Ethan Garbers wasn’t scheduled to start an hour before Saturday’s kickoff.  But on the Bruins’ first drive, the redshirt senior quarterback took the field.  And on UCLA’s final drive – with 27 seconds left on the clock – Garbers was the team’s last hope.  However, the seasoned signal-caller was depleted of his magic tricks by the fourth quarter.  With seven seconds to play, Garbers tossed deep into the night – and right into the hands of defensive back Koi Perich – for his third interception of the game.  As UCLA football (1-5, 0-4 Big Ten) lived and died by its veteran quarterback, Minnesota (4-3, 2-2) emerged victorious 21-17 at the Rose Bowl on Saturday night.  “This is a tough loss, so this one’s going to sting a little bit,” said coach DeShaun Foster.
