On September 3, 2017, UCLA completed the largest comeback in its program history, beating Texas A&M 45-44 – on a holiday weekend in the storied Rose Bowl. It was a catastrophic collapse – even by Texas A&M standards.
The box score from that evening reads like an absurd, overwritten piece fiction.
- Josh Rosen – 491 yards, 4 touchdowns, on 59(!) attempts
- Kellen Mond – 3 completions on 17 attempts for 27 yards.
It is nearly impossible for a quarterback to average 1.7 yards per attempt, but it was accomplished by the highly touted freshman Mond that night in Pasadena.
