UCLA's Johnathan Franklin ran for 40 yards in the quarter, and the two teams are tied 27-27 at the end of the third. The Bruins broke the 24-24 stalemate when Ka'imi Fairbairn drilled a 21-yard field goal to cap off an eight-play, 23-yard scoring drive. UCLA squandered an opportunity to score a touchdown, missing a chance to score from Nebraska's four-yard line.

Nebraska got even after Brett Maher kicked a 43-yard field goal to end an eight-play, 36-yard drive that tied the score at 27.

The Bruins' Franklin topped 100 yards rushing for the game in the quarter, and has plenty of time to add to his 118 total yards on the ground.

The Cornhuskers have the ball on their own nine-yard line to begin the fourth quarter.
