Today, we host 2-3 Cal which has been hit hard by injuries.
The first play of their 2nd drive, Riley is under heavy pressure and makes a horrible throw right to Torin Harris who gets a pick 6. 7-0.
We knock Riley out of the game and abuse Beau Sweeney for a quick 3 and out. Galippo with the hit on Riley.
A big PA reception by Cameron who shakes a tackle and takes it 55 yards down the field before getting caught from behind. The drive ends with a 48 yard FG by Houston though as Mustain got sacked twice to put us in 3rd and 30.
Riley is back into the game and he converts a 3rd and 13 at the end of the quarter. 10-0 at the end of 1.
Cal puts together a strong methodical drive that ends in a 2 yard TD run by Vereen. 10-7 midway through the 2nd.
Baxter with a bad fumble while trying to make a man miss gives them a very short field. But 2 plays later, Vereen fumbles inside the 5 and McDonald picks it up!
2 plays later Ronald Johnson absolutely burns his man (open by at least 10 yards) and Mustain hits him in stride for a 92 yard TD!!! 17-7 lead.
At halftime, we lead 17-7. We get the ball to start the 2nd half.
We start off the half with a well controlled 11 play drive that ends in a 16 yard TD pass to Havili. 24-7.
After being stuffed all game, Baxter makes an incredible move to break a 72 yard TD run but Prater gets called for a clipping that pulls it back.
At the end of the 3rd, Shareece Wright fumbles on a punt return and they take it in for 6. 24-14. Wright just lost the PR job as I haven't been impressed with his returns anyway.
Baxter is starting to make some big runs now.
Mustain to Woods for a 31 yard TD on 3rd and 10. We lead 31-14 now.
Houston with another 48 yard FG midway through the 4th. 34-14. We put in both 2nd units.
We win the game 34-14. Barkley and Bradford may both be back for the next game. Only 1 of them will be starting if they are..
