UCLA has lost one of its top defensive linemen ahead of a matchup with an opponent that could use two quarterbacks who employ different styles.

Fortunately for the Bruins, if there is any drop-off defensively without Eddie Vanderdoes, "Chosen Rosen" has the ability to pick up the slack.

Quarterback Josh Rosen excelled in his debut for 13th-ranked UCLA, which looks to overcome the loss of Vanderdoes in Saturday night's trip to UNLV.

The Bruins defeated Virginia 34-16 in last Saturday's opener, though Vanderdoes was likely lost for the season to a torn knee ligament.
