WATCH: UCLA RB pole vaults Oregon defender into end zone

Published:
UCLA running back Bolu Olorunfunmi may not have any track and field experience in his background, but by the looks of his touchdown Saturday against Oregon, that may change.
Olorunfunmi pole-vaulted his way over an Oregon defender into the end zone on a 22-yard touchdown run to give the Bruins a 24-14 lead with 3:20 left in the third quarter.
Olorunfunmi was the Bruins’ second-leading rusher entering the game with 40 carries for 240 yards and three touchdowns.
There aren’t too many highlights that will top this one across college football this week.
😱 Bolu Olorunfunmi! Just WOW. #UOvsUCLA@UCLAFootball with the lead.
