PASADENA, Calif. (AP) UCLA tailback Paul Perkins is a Phoenix-area native whose father and younger brother have both suited up for Arizona State.
So it's no surprise that this annual Pac-12 South matchup clearly means something special to Perkins, who averaged just under 9 yards per carry in his first two games against the Sun Devils.
The defending Pac-12 rushing champion gets his third chance Saturday at the Rose Bowl when No. 7 UCLA (4-0, 1-0 Pac-12) looks to build on its outstanding start.
