LINCOLN, Neb. — Ethan Garbers threw for two touchdowns, linebacker Kain Medrano returned an interception for a touchdown to start the second half, and UCLA held off Nebraska late to beat the Cornhuskers 27-20. The Bruins have won consecutive games for the first time under first-year coach DeShaun Foster following a 1-5 start. The Cornhuskers have dropped three straight and lost freshman quarterback Dylan Raiola to a crushing hit on their second-to-last possession. The Bruins led by 20 points in the third quarter but didn't secure the win until Kaylin Moore intercepted a deflected ball in the final seconds.
