UCLA 19, Tennessee 15

UCLA stopped Tennessee's Montario Hardesty on fourth-and-2 in the closing minutes, and the Bruins made it two in a row against the Volunteers with a 19-15 victory Saturday.

Trailing by 6, the Vols (1-1) had a chance to take the lead after driving 52 yards, but UCLA (2-0) held fast and Lane Kiffin lost for the first time as Tennessee coach.

For the Bruins, the win in Neyland Stadium in front of 102,239 fans was a big step toward recovering from last year's 4-8 finish.

The Pac-10 conference is 11-8 against SEC teams since 2000. USC and UCLA are a combined 8-0.
