Quarterbacks
B:. Drew Allar made some big-time throws on third down, but got away with an interception that was wiped out by a UCLA penalty.
Running backs
C: The Lions averaged just 2.8 yards per carry, even though Allar was sacked only once. They clearly missed the explosiveness of the injured Nick Singleton.
Receivers
B: Liam Clifford made three catches of at least 24 yards and is emerging as one of the most reliable receivers on the team.
Offensive linemen
B: They had another solid performance against a talented defensive line, but lost tackle Anthony Donkoh to an injury in the first quarter.
Defensive linemen
A: Dani Dennis-Sutton, Abdul Carter and others pressured quarterback Justyn Martin all afternoon.
Linebackers
B: Tony Rojas had a team-high eight tackles, but UCLA had a couple big runs through the middle of the defense.
Defensive backs
B: Jaylen Reed had another impactful game with a sack and a forced fumble, but UCLA tight ends caught six passes.
Special teams
B: Ryan Barker made two field goals in his debut as the new kicker, but the Lions aren’t getting much from their return game.
Coaches
B: Defensive coordinator Tom Allen’s group had another shut-down third quarter. Offensive coordinator Andy Kotelnicki freed Tyler Warren for a 5-yard TD pass on third down.
