Of all the things that have changed for Washington State in the past few weeks none can match the transformation of the Cougars offense.This is still home of the Air Raid offense with Luke Falk at the helm. But its the ground attack thats been the dominant component over the past two weeks.What in the name of Mike Leach is going on here?Im a big fan of balance, Washington State wide receiver Gabe Marks said. At this point in my career I realize what it can do for you. I like it.The Cougars look to continue that newfound balance on Saturday night hosting UCLA. Washington State (3-2, 2-0 Pac-12) is looking for a fourth straight winBehind the three-pronged attack of Jamal Morrow, Gerard Wicks and James Williams, the Cougars have rushed for more than 100 yards as a team in three straight games. And while the three games of ground success represent a small sample size, its the competition it came against that helps validate the evolving offense.Washington State rushed for 228 yards against Idaho, followed up with 280 yards rushing against Oregon and had 101 yards on the ground in last weeks 42-16 rout of Stanford.You have to be able to run the ball a little bit when you want to throw it. You have to be able to make people respect the run in order to open things up in the pass game, UCLA coach Jim Mora said. It doesnt surprise us. They count the box and if a run is there, Falk is a smart guy and he executes a run. But they do like to throw it. We do know they like to throw it.UCLAs biggest question mark is whether quarterback Josh Rosen will be able to play after getting beat up in last weeks loss to Arizona State. Mora was evasive about Rosens status, his most declarative statement being if Rosen is able to play, he will, and if he isnt, he wont.Despite suffering leg and shoulder injuries against the Sun Devils, Rosen threw for a career-high 400 yards in the loss. But his performance was offset by the Bruins (3-3, 1-2) rushing for minus-1 net yards and committing four turnovers.If Rosen cant go, the Bruins would likely turn to senior Mike Fafaul.Big fork in the road for us right now. It can go one of two ways, UCLA center Scott Quessenberry said. We can start turning on each other as a team or we can really come together and start rattling off wins.Other things to watch as the Bruins visit the Cougars for the first time since 2012:RUNNING BRUINS: Its hard to imagine Washington State having a better running attack than UCLA, but the Bruins run game has been non-existent the last four games. UCLA had 50 yards rushing against BYU; 77 vs. Stanford; 125 against Arizona but hit bottom last week against Arizona State with minus-1 net yards.The Bruins are averaging just 2.9 yards per rush.Anytime you cant run the ball you really make life hard for yourself offensively because you cant get yourself into situations where there are easy third-down completions or you get a team on their heels, Mora said.ON THE MARK(S): Marks is inching closer to the Pac-12 record for career receptions. Marks had five catches and his 30th career touchdown grab last week against Stanford. Marks now has 261 career receptions, 33 behind Nelson Spruce for the most in conference history.One of Marks most important catches came last year against UCLA on a 21-yard TD grab with 3 seconds left that gave the Cougars a 31-27 win.AIR DEFENSE: Falk is set to take on the best pass defense hes seen thus far this season.UCLAs pass defense is allowing just a 48.8 percent completion rate. Its the best mark in the Pac-12 and the Bruins rank seventh nationally in pass efficiency defense. But UCLA has yet to face a passing game anywhere close to the explosiveness of Washington States: the Cougars are averaging 381 yards per game.CRACKING 24: UCLA has yet to allow a team to score more than 24 points in regulation this season. Keeping that streak going means slowing down a Washington State offense that has topped 24 points in 16 of the past 18 games. Nmd_r2 Sko Norge .

The home side created most of the chances but struggled to break down Braunschweigs resilient defence, resulting in the Bundesligas 1,000th scoreless draw.Chiles Felipe Aguilar claimed the clubhouse lead in the weather-disrupted Volvo China Open after finally overcoming the effects of his unorthodox winter activities. Aguilar stormed home in 31 at Topwin Golf and Country Club to add a flawless 65 to his opening 68 and set the target on 11 under par, one shot ahead of Swedens Alex Noren and Austrias Bernd Wiesberger. Leaderboard Volvo China Open The 41-year-old had missed the cut in six straight events before finishing tied 58th in the Shenzhen International last week and admitted completing an Ironman triathlon over the winter had taken its toll. Its been a tough beginning of the year so hopefully this will be a turnaround point, Aguilar said.I think I believe my doctors when they said the Ironman was going to affect my fitness for the first two months [of the year]. They said it could take 45 days [to recover] and it took close to 60 days.It takes a lot of time and energy and both sports dont go along with each other. I look back on it as a great experience and Ill do it again after I quit playing golf.Play was initially suspended due to the threat of lightning and then abandoned for the day due to darkness, with the second round set to resume early on Saturday. First-round leader Hennie Otto has four holes to play and is two shots off the lead on nine under par alongside Englands Tyrrell Hatton, Denmarks Lucas Bjerregaard, Germanys Marcel Siem and Koreas Tae-hoon Kim, who recorded a hole-in-one on his way to a brilliant 64.Kim holed out on the 177-yard 13th hole in a remarkable run of scoring which saw him play a 12-hole stretch in nine under par, before dropping his only shot of the day on the 17th. Willett tribute to Spieth Masters champion salutes classy American I played well and after I got the hole-in-one I became really confident and finished really well, the world No 563 said.ddddddddddddIt was about 165 metres but with the view from the tee, we couldnt see the hole, only the top of the flag. I was aiming a little to the left of the pin and I just hit a seven iron, it was a beautiful shot and the galleries beside the green shouted out so thats how I knew.Noren carded five birdies and no bogeys to record a second consecutive 67, while Wiesberger carded four birdies and one bogey in his 69. Alex Noren has carded back-to-back 67s I felt relaxed out there, Wiesberger said. I played great golf yesterday and scored really well in tough conditions yesterday so I was looking forward to getting out there this morning and trying to do the same.I played decent, not quite as well as yesterday, especially off the tee and was struggling with the pace of my putting early on. I left a lot of putts short but all in all I feel well on the golf course and its a good first two days.Defending champion Wu Ashun, who became the first Chinese player to win a European Tour event on home soil 12 months ago, is four under par with seven holes remaining, with the halfway cut projected to fall at two under.
