· Yahoo Sports

Can the UCLA Bruins stay unbeaten? It's been a fantastic 9-0 start to the season for Bob Chesney's team but the Illinois Fighting Illini will look to deliver the Bruins their first loss of the season. Illinois heads to Pasadena for a Friday night showdown, with the Fighting Illini entering the game having won four games in a row.

A win on Friday would put No. 4 UCLA in terrific spot to claim a College Football Playoff spot, with the Bruins being the lone unbeaten team in the Big Ten Conference. UCLA will roll with Ty Dieffenbach, who has taken the starting quarterback job and ran with it. Dieffenbach will make his fifth start of the season with some increased confidence after winning the Big Ten Offensive Player of the Week in Week 10 against Minnesota.
