California’s defense had its best game of the season, returning two fumbles for touchdowns and recording a season-high six sacks as the Golden Bears beat Washington State 42-39 on Saturday to end a four-game losing streak and keep their slim bowl hopes alive. Washington State kicker Dean Janikowski missed a pair of field goal attempts in the fourth quarter, including a 48-yarder that was wide left with 50 seconds remaining. Running back Jaydn Ott rushed for 167 yards and accounted for two touchdowns for Cal (4-6, 2-5 Pac-12).

This past Saturday’s contest against Oregon was a forgettable one to say the least, but the Bears continued to try to rally despite facing an uphill battle all afternoon.

Line: California by 1 1/2 according to FanDuel Sportsbook. Washington State has lost five in a row since an 4-0 start and can ill afford another loss if the Cougars want to become bowl eligible. Washington State has made a bowl game in the last seven non-pandemic seasons.
