After redshirting his initial year at UCLA, Brendel became a fixture at center after spring practice and started all 14 games for the Bruins in 2012.[2] He was named first-team Freshman All-America by The Sporting News, CBSSports.com, and Football Writers Association of America,[3][4][5] and second-team Freshman All-America by College Football News.[6] As a junior in 2014, he was team's most experienced offensive lineman. After missing the season opener against Virginia with a knee injury, he returned to start the rest of the season.[7] Brendel was named to the All-Pac-12 second team.[8] He requested an evaluation of his NFL draft stock, but decided to return for his senior year,[7] when he again earned second-team All-Pac-12 honors.[9] The three-time team captain finished his UCLA career with a school record of 52 starts.[10]
