California Memorial Stadium Witnesses Intense Football Battle Between California Golden Bears and Washington Huskies
The California Golden Bears, with a season record of 4-8, faced off against the Washington Huskies, who came into the game with an impressive 11-2 record. The final score reflected a closely contested game at California Memorial Stadium: 28-21 in favor of the visiting team.
The Golden Bears' offense accumulated a total of 306 yards throughout the game. The passing attack was particularly effective, contributing 245 yards to that total. The quarterback's precision was on display as he completed 21 out of his 34 attempts and threw for three touchdowns without any interceptions, achieving an impressive passer rating of approximately 151. His longest pass completion was a significant contributor to the scoreboard, resulting in a touchdown from 48 yards out.
On the ground, however, it was tough going for the Golden Bears as they managed only 61 rushing yards over the course of their attempts. Despite this struggle in gaining ground yardage, they were able to secure five first downs through their running efforts.
Special teams had mixed results; while kickoffs totaled up to nearly half a football field at around 249 yards with two touchbacks among four kicks, punt returns did not add much yardage to their cause.
Defensively speaking, California's squad put forth a solid effort by recording two sacks and applying consistent pressure on Washington's quarterback with multiple hits behind the line of scrimmage. Although no turnovers were forced by interceptions or fumble recoveries during this contest for either side – which speaks volumes about ball security – there were only two penalties called against them amounting to just fifteen penalty yards.
Red zone efficiency stood out as one area where California excelled; they capitalized on both opportunities when within striking distance by scoring touchdowns each time they entered this critical area near their opponent’s end zone.
