UCLA Stuns No. 19 Wazzu With Massive Comeback in Absurd Late-Night Shootout

As most of the East Coast slept in the post-midnight hours of Sunday morning, Week 4 of the college football season was going out with a bang.

Despite Washington State quarterback Anthony Gordon throwing for a school and Pac-12 record nine(!) touchdowns, his No. 19 Cougars fell in a wild offensive shootout, 67–63, to previously winless UCLA. The 130 combined points were the most in a Pac-12 game in history.

The Bruins trailed by as many as 32 points when Wazzu took a 49–17 lead with 6:52 to go in the third quarter on a Gordon touchdown pass to Dezmon Patmon.
