UCLA's new head coach Bob Chesney has led the Bruins to a 4-0 start with three games where they scored at least 45 points each, currently ranked No. 21 nationally. Despite quarterback Dante Moore being ruled out for their upcoming game against Oregon due to an injury sustained in their win over USC, Oregon remains favored by 11.5 points. The article predicts that backup quarterback Dylan Raiola will lead the Ducks to victory despite defensive concerns highlighted by rankings and statistics showing weaknesses compared to previous years.

Story summary
In their upcoming game on Saturday, UCLA, ranked No. 21 and led by former Tennessee quarterback Nico Iamaleava, is predicted to challenge Oregon's defense despite facing a 11.5-point spread without starting quarterback Dante Moore due to injury. Despite losing Moore, Oregon still favors Dylan Raiola, a junior who has previously played for Nebraska. The matchup comes after UCLA’s impressive start under new coach Bob Chesney, who led James Madison to the College Football Playoff and now has UCLA boasting a 4-0 record with three games where they scored over 45 points each. This game is crucial as it could further solidify UCLA's position against strong competition in the college football landscape.
