86704, UCLA vs. Stanford
Posted by will_5198, Sun Sep-12-10 05:12 PM
QB Andrew Luck, Stanford (6'4, 235) -- Missed several throws against UCLA and his arm strength is not tremendous. Still, he's extremely accurate on the move and made his best throws on roll-outs. He's an above average runner and smart about when he takes off. Release could be quicker and once or twice his wind-up was too low. Throws an extremely catchable ball.

NT Sione Fua, Stanford (6'2, 306) -- Could not be blocked one-on-one and repeatedly disrupted running plays in the backfield. Forced double and even triple teams by UCLA. Relatively athletic for a two-gap tackle and makes a few plays down the line. Got a sack when Stanford went to four down linemen on pass plays, although he's not a big pass rusher.

OLB Akeem Ayers, UCLA (6'4, 254) -- Smooth athlete and gets sideline to sideline with ease. Sheds blocks relatively well when chasing sideways, but he's less effective when the play is coming right to him off the snap. Not overly strong and didn't show tremendous sack potential off the edge.

FS Rahim Moore, UCLA (6'1, 195) -- You really get to see all his limitations in the red-zone. Can't match-up against tight ends in coverage (beaten badly for a touchdown that was negated by illegal formation). Undersized and a non-factor in run support (easily pushed back by Stanford's receivers and opens up running lanes by dancing around blocks). Took a few odd routes to deep throws and was predictably late. He's a corner trying to play safety.
