Thanks cc; my brain somehow remembered it as being a shade over 100 yards.

UCLA was a more disappointing loss, especially sandwiched between good outings against Washington and Arizona, but at least we had an offensive score and we can reasonably wonder about out having to play our third string quarterback.  Hard to believe Mills or Costello would have made such a big difference, but I wonder if Costello being able to move around in the pocket better than West would have helped reduce the sacks, plus having him beat press coverage once or twice with throws to FEhoko or St. brown (as he did against Arizona) would have softened the coverage a bit.

Not sure that buys us 19 points, but I do think the offensive futility would have been less pronounced, and the game less frustrating to watch as a result.
