California Golden Bears
In the midst of a turbulent college football season, the dissolution of the PAC12 conference is a major development, with the Cal Bears now part of the Atlantic Coast Conference. The team has a new lineup of opponents, facing off against just two of their former PAC12 rivals. In their recent game against UC Davis, Cal secured a 31-13 victory despite some offensive struggles. Quarterback Fernando Mendoza showed efficiency, but the team's third-down conversion rate was disappointing. Running back Jayden Ott, listed as probable for the next game, had a quiet day compared to his strong performance last season. On the defensive side, Cal struggled in the previous season but is determined to improve, particularly in pass defense. With a power ranking of 97, Cal is 1-0 this season, with room for growth on both offense and defense.
