Rocky Long has yet another solid San Diego State returning in 2020 and after a 10-win season, the Aztecs should be contenders in the Mountain West.

San Diego State will likely push a team like Boise State in the conference and could very well take down UCLA in this one, but the Bruins are finally going to win a non-conference game against a Group of Five team that they should beat.

Dorian Thompson-Robinson will have a big game here.

Final Score: UCLA 28, San Diego State 24 (3-0)

The first Pac-12 game of the season comes in the final week of September and the Cardinal haven’t been the same program over the past few years that they were in the early days of David Shaw and KJ Costello’s departure will hurt the offense.

Looking for their first conference victory of the season, UCLA will have the home-field advantage and Thompson-Robinson will be playing the best football of his career.

This one comes down to the wire with the Bruins sneaking away with a win.

Final Score: Stanford 20, UCLA 24 (4-0, 1-0 Pac-12)
