UCLA’s 2017 football schedule was released Wednesday and includes a season opener on Sept. 2 against Texas A&M at the Rose Bowl in a rematch of a game that went to overtime last season, with the Aggies prevailing on the final play.

The Bruins, who are trying to rebound from a 4-8 season that was the worst of Coach Jim Mora’s tenure with the team, will also face Hawaii on Sept. 9 at the Rose Bowl before traveling to face Memphis on Sept. 16 in their only nonconference road game.

UCLA will open Pac-12 Conference play at Stanford on Sept. 23 before returning home to face Colorado on Sept. 30 and then having a bye week. The Bruins then go back on the road to play Arizona on Oct. 14 and then come home to play Oregon on Oct. 21.
