UCLA outrushed Colorado 249 yards to 51, and the Bruins dominated the Pac-12 opener for both teams with touchdown drives on their first three possessions to build a 21-3 lead that was never threatened.

The Bruins were driving again when Jamar Montgomery stuffed Keegan Jones on fourth-and-2 at the Colorado 27, and the Buffaloes drove 74 yards for their first touchdown.

UCLA needed just four plays to score when Charbonnet took it in from 46 yards to make it 28-10. He also scored on runs of 35 and 13 yards in the first half following Thompson-Robinson's 24-yard touchdown pass to Matt Sykes. The Bruins turned a trio of third-quarter takeaways in Colorado territory into 17 points, starting with a field goal after a fourth-down stop at the Buffaloes 31.

Thompson-Robinson finished 19 of 23 for 234 yards, two TDs and no turnovers, and Charbonnet's day was done after he rushed for 104 yards and three TDs on just nine carries.
