The Cal Golden Bears had a bye-week this week, that led to a lame weekend for all Cal fans. However, don’t fret, we have all your latest news here to get you ready to what will be a fun week before the inevitable blow-out at the hands of Oregon this weekend:
There is aninteresting articleregarding Cal’s $16.3 million tab in regards to paying for the coaching change this past off-season. They noted that Cal owes former head coach Jeff Tedford is still owed $6 million and current head coach Sonny Dykes salary perks.
In retort, California Golden Blog’s simply says,“duh.”
Cal beat writer Hunter Hewittthinks it’s possiblethat Jared Goff could break UCLA’s Brett Hundley’s FBS Freshman record for passing yards (3,745).
Jeff Faraudo, of the Contra Costa Times,explainsthat this week’s bye week brought on more competition for the Cal Bears than the vacation that bye week’s tend to be about. Also, Matt Cochran islikely to miss a monthafter going under the knife this past Thursday. (Also, in said article, we find out that Bryce Treggs is officially on Biletnikoff Award watch).
On a non-football note, point guard Justin Cobbs sayshe’s feeling goodafter having off-season foot surgery. And, there isa videoon the Cal Womens Basketball team’s trip to China. It’s worth a watch…seriously.
If you wanted to see Sonny Dyke’s post-practice news conference, you can see ithereon YouTube.
A couple of news and notes around the Pac-12:
A great week for the Pac-12. Washington Stateran Idaho out of town. I know this may not be the biggest win in the world, but it was just a few weeks ago where they were held to 10 points. This offense is really good….UCLA is real. I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again. I know I may get hated on for saying that Stanford looked lame in the 4th against Arizona State, but no one can disagree when I say that UCLA looks like an actual threat…Sean Mannion had a his worst game of the season according to the Pac-12 network, yet still put up amonster gamein a win over San Diego State…If Stanford plays like they did for thefirst three quartersof the ASU game, they’ll have a successful season. If they can’t keep teams from making late-game runs, they’ll be in for it.
