  When the game was on the line, Dorian Thompson-Robinson wasn't going to allow UCLA to lose. Thompson threw a tiebreaking 75-yard TD pass early in the fourth quarter and came back from a banged-up shoulder to throw a clinching touchdown late that helped No. 24 UCLA spoil Stanford's return home with a 35-24 victory over the Cardinal on Saturday. "The one thing I don't think gets mentioned enough with Dorian is how tough he is. He's been tough from the get-go," coach Chip Kelly said. "It's an underrated quality for a quarterback to be a tough guy. I think that was on display tonight. It's something that we've known for four years now. But I think he really showed that tonight." Stanford (2-2, 1-1 Pac-12) had played its last seven games away from home because of COVID-19 protocols last season and a tough opening schedule.

The Cardinal managed to win six of those games but came out flat against the Bruins (3-1, 1-0). UCLA broke out to a 14-0 lead and then, after letting Stanford battle back to tie it, got the biggest play of the game when Thompson-Robinson found Kyle Phillips open deep over the middle for the long TD on the next play from scrimmage. The Bruins sealed the win when Thompson-Robinson threw a 5-yard TD pass to Phillips after briefly leaving the game with the hurt shoulder. "We saw him go down," Phillips said. "He was fighting a shoulder injury the whole game. He ran the ball, went down and game was on the line, came back and made a huge play. We're all just really proud of him." - UCLA/AP College Football
