No. 7 UCLA is playing with a target on its back as one of only three unbeaten teams in the nation. First-year coach Bob Chesney emphasizes details to maintain their perfect record. The Bruins, who are 7-0, host Nevada on Saturday at the Rose Bowl. Chesney needs one more win to tie the largest single-season turnaround for a first-year Bruins coach. UCLA is looking for its first 8-0 start since 2005. Both teams will be without their starting quarterbacks.

UCLA's Nico Iamaleava is out for the season, while Nevada's Carter Jones is sidelined with injuries.
