Cal RB Ott

[ball915]

is very good. He's been banged up all season but is coming off of a bye and isn't being talked about enough. He is their best player and will need to contain him for things to go our way. Do not sleep on this guy just because he hasn't flashed so far this year as he is dangerous.

 

[Yoyo423]

had like 1300 yards and 12TDs last year... very good... of course he'll be fully healthy for our game...

 

[Shooter McGavin]

Yea Va Tech’s rb was supposedly banged up too and ran for 500 yards on us. Get up big early and make them throw.

You should know by now. Either that or the back up is better lmao

They could only score 9pts against FSU

I don't think that's the best way to gauge a team when other dynamics go into it. For example, Old dominion gave up 37 points to VT we gave up 34.

Well wouldn’t surprise me if he went for 100+ after what the VT RB did and he’s just as talented.

What I saw against VT was more of the same issues from last year defensively (poor tackling/poor run fits). Didnt feel like an outlier either

3rd string kicker, 80 yard fg incoming

Cal o-line isn’t that good

Run defense was 12th tho. So even with those issues and less talent on the dline they played the run well

These comparisons can be misleading. Our rivalry, the point spread and the fact that we are highly ranked contributed to VT giving us their best. I doubt seeing Old Dominion on your schedule makes you focus and prepare as well.

 

[JHallCanes]

He was in the Top 3 of basically everyone’s portal want at RB this off-season

It’s not a secret

 

[KANE]

We get a little more push with Bain back, plus their OL is not real good. If our front 7 is relatively healthy, I like our chances. Get up on them and force them to throw it.

What is the run D ranked now

 

[HurricanePhilly]

Cal is solid....we play bad we can lose.

Auburn's QB I think is colorblind. He had 4 Interceptions and a fumble I believe.

The drive chart is fascinating for the 2nd half
Punt (sacked 2 times)
Punt (sacked again) The only 3 sacks they had for the game

3 of the 4 interceptions were on the first play of drives and the 4th was on the 2nd play of a drive.

I mean the defense probably wanted to kill him

 

[Braduhley]

Cal lost to a horrendous FSU team and needed 5 turnovers to beat a bad Auburn team by 7. They'll push us to our limit, of course.

Gotta tackle

That's how I feel about Cal. They had a week off most schools besides miami usually get better coming off a bye. At the very least with this being our 6th game in a row they should be more healthy. They traveled to FSU vs us traveling there. I guarantee they will be more excited to play miami vs an FSU team that hadn't won a game yet. That's not even taking to account college game day being there and their QB being from miami. FSU was just a poor example of comparison.

Then again, that same QB lit us up for 4 TDs when he was at MSU.

He was hurt. Missed the game before that, FSU was his first game back and he wasn't himself. He's very good. Probably the best back we'll see all year.
