UCLA QB Brett Hundley to start Thursday night vs. Arizona State
By Jack Crosby
We get two good college football match ups on Thursday night and the later one is a Pac-12 showdown between the UCLA Bruins and the Arizona State Sun Devils. Now coming in, we know that Arizona State will be without their quarterback, Taylor Kelly, who is out with a leg injury. However, there was also a chance that UCLA could be without their Heisman hopeful signal-caller, Brett Hundley.

Well, that’s not going to happen.
It was revealed just a short time ago that Hundley is indeed listed as the starting quarterback on the depth chart for the conference match up tonight.

This is good news for the Bruins, although it’ll be interesting to see just how much punishment Hundley can take. ‘
In the team’s last outing in Arlington, Texas against the Texas Longhorns, Hundley was knocked out of the game, and as we all saw, backup Jerry Neuheisel came in and was phenomenal in leading the team to the comeback victory.
But it seems as though Neuheisel’s services will not be needed for the game tonight, well, at least not to start the game. Hundley has indeed been on the practice field this week, but head coach Jim Mora nor the team never announced a final decision on whether or not he would be starting.
