QUICK HITTERS
• Cal will open the 2016 season in Sydney,
Australia, when the Golden Bears play Hawai’i
in the first college football game of the 2016
campaign. The game will be televised live by
ESPN and played at Sydney’s ANZ Stadium at
Noon local time on Saturday, Aug. 27 with the
game in the United States on Friday, Aug. 26
(10 pm ET/7 pm PT). The contest will mark the
first college football game to ever be played in
Sydney and the first in Australia since games
in Melbourne in 1985 and 1987. Cal will be
playing a football game outside of the United
States for only the second time in school history. Cal and Washington State battled to a 17-17
tie at the Coca-Cola Classic in Tokyo, Japan, on
Nov. 28, 1987.
• Cal’s seven-win turnaround on the field
over the last two seasons from a 1-11 record
in 2013 to an 8-5 mark in 2015 is tied for the
second best in school history behind only the
eight-win improvement from a 2-10 mark in
1946 to a 10-1 record in 1948.
• Cal’s top 2016 preseason honors include
quarterback Davis Webb being named to the
Maxwell Award, Johnny Unitas Golden Arm and
Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award watch lists,
offensive lineman Chris Borrayo to the Outland
Trophy watch list, placekicker Matt Anderson to
the Lou Groza Award watch list, and Khalfani
Muhammad and Tre Watson to the Doak Walker
Award watch list. Jack Austin is also on the
Wuerffel Trophy watch list and Cal’s nominee
for the All-State Good Works Team®.
2016 California Football Game Notes (vs. Hawai’i, Aug. 26/27, 2016)
• Cal’s turnaround off the field has been arguably even more impressive as evidenced by a
single-season Academic Progress Rate (APR)
score of 997 in the most recent data released
by the NCAA on April 20, 2016. After successive one-year scores under 930 in the two
years before Dykes arrived on campus, the past
three rates for the football program have been
969, 946 and 997 to lift the squad’s four-year
APR average to 960 – its highest since 200809. Cal’s 997 APR for the 2014-15 academic
year ties for the highest in the Pac-12 and the
19-point jump (941 to 960) in the multi-year
rate from the previous report a year prior is the
best among the conference’s football programs.
• The Bears’ eight wins in the Golden Bears’
third season under Dykes in 2015 marked
the school’s most victories since 2009. Cal
capped the season with a win over Air Force at
the Lockheed Martin Armed Forces Bowl with
the bowl victory its first postseason win since
2008 in its first bowl appearance since 2011.
Cal began the 2015 season with five straight
victories to mark the program’s best start since
the Bears were also 5-0 in 2007.
• Head coach Sonny Dykes was named to
the midseason watch list for the 2015 Dodd
Trophy, making him one of 20 head coaches
on the list who were selected for representing
programs with the highest ideals of leadership,
scholarship and integrity on and off the field.

• Cal will open the 2016 season on Saturday, Aug. 27 in Sydney, Australia, when
the Golden Bears play Hawai’i in the first college football game of the 2016
campaign and the only FBS game of the opening weekend. The game can be
seen on ESPN on Friday, Aug. 26, at 7:30 p.m. PT. It will be played at Noon on
Saturday, Aug. 27, Sydney time. The College Football Sydney Cup will take place
at the 83,500-seat ANZ Stadium originally constructed for the 2000 Olympic
Games. Cal will leave Berkeley on Saturday, Aug. 20, and arrive in Sydney on
Monday, Aug. 22. Sydney is 17 hours ahead of Pacific Time.
• The contest will mark the first college football game to ever be played in Sydney
and the first in Australia since games in Melbourne in 1985 and 1987. Cal will be
playing a football game outside of the United States for only the second time in
school history. Cal and Washington State battled to a 17-17 tie in the Coca-Cola
Classic on Nov. 28, 1987, in Tokyo, Japan.
• Cal and Hawai’i have split four previous meetings with the Rainbow Warriors a
21-7 winner the last time the teams played in 1994 in Berkeley. Cal won in both
1968 and 1993, while Hawai’i captured the first-ever game between the teams
in 1934. All of the contests prior to 1994 were played in Honolulu.
• The August 2016 trip will mark the second time a Cal Athletics team has played
Down Under in the last year with the men’s basketball squad playing four
exhibition contests in August of 2015 in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane.
Cal In Season Openers
• The Bears are 7-2 in season openers since 2007. Last season, Cal topped
Grambling State, 73-14, in Berkeley in the 2015 opener. This is also the third
time since 2007 that Cal’s season opener won’t be played in Berkeley – 2011 vs.
Fresno State at Candlestick Park and 2014 at Northwestern. In 121 seasons, Cal
is 75-42-4 all-time in season openers.
Dykes Adds Spavital As New OC, Chachere Switches To RBs
• The Sydney Cup will mark Jake Spavital’s first game as Cal’s new offensive
coordinator and quarterbacks coach. He spent the last three campaigns at
Texas A&M in the same role with the Aggies for the past two seasons after being
promoted to the position from co-offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach prior
to Texas A&M’s 2013 bowl appearance. This past spring, Spavital installed a
high-tempo offense that was widely recognized to be run at a significantly faster
pace than the record-setting and already fast-paced offense employed by Dykes
and former offensive coordinator Tony Franklin the past three seasons. Spavital
has coached a series of record-setting quarterbacks now in the NFL including
2012 Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel (Texas A&M), Case Keenum
(Houston), Geno Smith (West Virginia) and Brandon Weeden (Oklahoma State).
Spavital also begin implementing high-tech virtual reality video of the team’s
spring practices into his quarterbacks’ regimen, allowing the Cal signal callers
to dissect nearly every facet of the offense and take additional reps when not
on the field.
• Fourth-year assistant coach and second-year associate head coach Garret
Chachere has moved from coaching the linebackers to the running backs this
season, marking the first time in his career that he has switched from defense to
offense on the same team.
Webb Named To Several Preseason Watch Lists
• Senior quarterback Davis Webb has been named to watch lists for the Maxwell
Award, Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award and the Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award.
He was previously on the Maxwell Award Watch List during his 2014 sophomore
season with the Red Raiders and recently was the top senior quarterback for the
2017 NFL Draft by ESPN’s Mel Kiper in May.
• Webb, who was named the team’s starting quarterback on Aug. 4, is a graduate
transfer in his first season at Cal who received his bachelor’s degree in exercise
and sports science from Texas Tech in May of 2016.
• Webb completed 459-of-747 passes (61.4%) for 5,557 yards with 46 touchdowns
and 22 interceptions for a 138.4 passer efficiency rating in 23 games played and
14 starts over the last three seasons at Texas Tech from 2013-15.
• Semifinalists for the Maxwell Award will be announced Oct. 31, 2016, while the
three finalists will be unveiled Nov. 21, 2016.

Watson, Enwere, Muhammad All Return This Season
• Cal has experience at running back with the team’s top three rushers (senior
Khalfani Muhammad, junior Vic Enwere and junior Tre Watson) all back in 2016,
with Muhammad and Watson selected to the Doak Walker Award watch list. The
honor is presented annually to the nation’s top college running back. Only two
players per school were able to be selected as preseason candidates, but Cal has
another possibility for the honor in Enwere who was named to the Earl Campbell
Tyler Rose Award watch list.
• Ten semifinalists for the Doak Walker Award will be named on Nov. 16, and
national selection committee will determine the three finalists on Nov. 22. Sixteen
semifinalists for the Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award will be named in November.
• All three backs rushed for over 500 yards in 2015 with Muhammad leading the
way with 586 rushing yards, while Enwere was second with 505 and Watson right
behind him with 504. Their efforts helped Cal become the first college football
team in recorded history to have six players with 40 or more receptions and
three 500-yard rushers in the same season.
• Watson made an impact in the final four games last season, collecting 359 of
his 504 rushing yards during that span. He rushed for a career-best 110 yards
against Oregon State, along with 54 receiving yards and a touchdown. In 23
career games played with one start, he has rushed for 598 career yards on
114 carries (5.7 ypg) with four rushing touchdowns.
• Muhammad has played in 34 games with seven starts. He leads all active Cal
players in nearly every offensive and kick return category including rushing yards
(1,246), rushing attempts (207), receptions (38) and yards receiving (439). He
was Cal’s leading rusher in 2015 with 586 yards on 87 carries.
• Enwere has played in 25 games with three starts, and leads all active players with
10 rushing touchdowns (team-best 8 in 2015), 140 carries and his 698 yards on
the ground are second. He posted all of his single-season career highs in 2015
when he led the team with eight touchdowns and 106 carries for 505 yards to
rank second on the club.
New Wide Receivers Look To Shine
• Despite the loss of the team’s top six receivers from a year ago, there has been
plenty of competition at the position to replace them including several returnees
with playing experience (junior Jack Austin, junior Chad Hansen, junior Raymond
Hudson, sophomore Kanawai Noa, senior Bug Rivera, junior Matt Rockett and
senior Patrick Worstell) being pushed by a host of newcomers including 2015
redshirt freshman Brandon Singleton, as well as mid-year enrollee freshmen
Jordan Duncan, Melquise Stovall and Jordan Veasy, and incoming freshmen like
five-star All-American Demetris Robertson.
• Robertson is the nation’s top-ranked receiver in the 2016 recruiting class
according to Rivals, 247Sports and 247Sports Composite, and a five-star
recruit according to Rivals, Scout, 247Sports and 247Sports Composite, while
he garnered four from ESPN.
• Hansen is Cal’s leading returning receiver from 2015. He ended the campaign
with 19 catches for 249 yards and a touchdown.
• Stovall impressed coaches during spring ball, coming to Berkeley as a consensus
four-star recruit who ranked as high as the No. 3 all-purpose back and No. 166
overall player in the country according to 247Sports.
Borrayo Named to Outland Trophy Watch List
• Senior offensive guard Chris Borrayo was named to the 2016 Outland Trophy
Watch List. Borrayo is on the watch list for the award that annually honors
the nation’s top interior lineman for the second consecutive season. He was
previously named preseason All-Pac-12 by several publications including a firstteam selection from Phil Steele.
• Borrayo has started all 29 games he has played in at Cal over the past three
campaigns at left guard including a career-high 13 as a 2015 junior. His 29
career starts are the second-most by any active Cal player behind only fellow
senior offensive lineman Steven Moore’s 36 while his games played are fourth
among the team’s active players.
• In addition to his 2016 preseason honors, he was an honorable mention AllPac-12 selection of the league’s coaches and third-team pick by Phil Steele.

Anderson Named To Groza Watch List
2015 CAL’S TEAM GAME HIGHS
• Junior placekicker Matt Anderson was among 30 players named to the 2016
Lou Groza Collegiate Place-Kicker Award Watch List the Palm Beach County
Sports Commission announced. Anderson is the first Cal player on the list since
Vincenzo D’Amato was a national semifinalist in 2013.

Award from the school’s Athletic Study Center at the Student-Athlete Academic
Honors Luncheon for being the Cal football player with the highest cumulative
GPA for each of his first three seasons at Cal from 2013-15.
• The Lou Groza Place-Kicker Award will announce 20 semifinalists Thursday,
Nov. 3. Three finalists for the 25th annual award, presented by the Orange Bowl

*Lockheed Martin Armed Forces Bowl, Fort Worth, Texas
• Cal has four returning starters from 2015 on the offensive line that have started
84 games in their career and made 45 of 65 possible offensive line starts in
2015. Steven Moore (team-high 36 career starts), Chris Borrayo (29) and senior
Dominic Granado (13) each started all 13 games in 2015, while junior Aaron
Cochran made all six of his career starts a year ago. Junior transfer Dwayne
Wallace is currently listed as the starter at right guard, while sophomore
Addison Ooms and Granado are both at the top of the depth chart at center.
Ooms appeared in three games last year as a redshirt freshman.
Defense Looks To Cause More Turnovers in 2016
• Led by third-year defensive coordinator Art Kaufman, much of Cal’s improvement
in 2015 was because the Bears’ defense was one of the nation’s top teams in
categories related to caused turnovers all season. Cal finished the campaign
tied for 11th nationally in fumbles recovered (12), tied for 13th in turnovers
gained (27), tied for 15th in passes intercepted (27) and tied for 25th in
defensive touchdowns (3). Cal tied for first in the Pac-12 in fumbles recovered,
tied for second in turnovers gained, and tied for third in defensive touchdowns
and interceptions. All of the 2015 numbers and rankings were improvements
from the previous season.
Allensworth, Walker Lead Secondary
• Sonny Dykes said that the defensive backs were one of the most improved
units during spring practices where the Bears have returning starters in junior
cornerback Darius Allensworth and senior nickelback Cameron Walker.
• Allensworth is the lone returning Cal defender who started all 13 games last
season. He ended 2015 with 41 tackles, 1.5 tackles for loss (-5), 11 pass
breakups, two forced fumbles and an interception. Walker, who appeared in all
13 games and started 11 of them, amassed 38 tackles, four tackles for loss
(-18), two sacks (-8), two pass breakups and an interception.
New Faces On The Defensive Depth Chart
• Safety Evan Rambo and defensive end Cameron Saffle are two of Cal’s three
defensive players (Trey Turner) who played as true freshmen in 2015 and are
now currently atop the depth chart at their positions. In addition, senior safety
Khari Vanderbilt and junior transfer cornerback Marloshawn Franklin Jr. are two
new faces at the top of the depth chart at their positions, as well. Vanderbilt
played in 11 games last season as a backup at safety.
Cal-Hawai’i Connections
• Semisi Uluave and Kanawai Noa are natives of Hawai’i and both attended
Punahou High School in Honolulu.
• Graduate assistant and former Cal tight end (2010-13) Spencer Hagan served as

Best At Rio Olympics
• Former Cal and NFL running back Jahvid Best represented Saint Lucia in track
and field at the 2016 Summer Olympic Games in Rio De Janeiro. Best played
football at Cal from 2007-09 and for the NFL’s Detroit Lions from 2010-13. He
became the first retired NFL player to compete in the Summer Olympics, and the
second overall. Best, who has a Saint Lucian father (David Best) and holds dual
citizenship, clocked a time of 10.39 in the 100m prelims, but did not advance
to the semifinals. Best ran in the same heat as Olympic gold medalist and world
record holder Usain Bolt of Jamaica.
Four Former Cal Players Selected In NFL Draft, More Sign
With NFL Teams
• Quarterback Jared Goff’s (2013-15) No. 1 overall selection led the way for four
former Cal players selected in the 2016 NFL Draft last April. The four Cal players
selected in the 2016 NFL Draft were the most since four Golden Bears were also
chosen in 2013.
• Goff became the second player in school history to be selected No. 1 overall when
he was chosen by the Los Angeles Rams on the opening of the draft. Goff became
the second No. 1 overall selection in the NFL Draft in the history of Cal football
(Steve Bartkowski, 1975). He also became Cal’s sixth quarterback drafted in the
first round and the 27th overall first-round draft pick in the history of the program.
• Wide receiver/kick returner Trevor Davis (Green Bay Packers, fifth round, No. 163
overall), running back Daniel Lasco (New Orleans Saints, seventh round, No. 237
overall) and wide receiver Kenny Lawler (Seattle Seahawks, seventh round, No.
243 overall) were also chosen.
• In addition to the four NFL Draft picks, eight more significant members of Cal’s
2015 squad signed contracts with NFL teams - Stephen Anderson (Houston),
Maurice Harris (Washington), Kyle Kragen (Denver), Stefan McClure (Indianapolis),
Darius Powe (New York Giants), Jordan Rigsbee (Carolina), Bryce Treggs (San
Francisco) and Darius White (Indianapolis, cornerback)

Cal in Joe Castignani, Justin Dunn, David Garner and David Ortega Jr.
• Castignani’s father, Jim, was a two-sport athlete at Cal and a member of the
1980 national championship rugby team. Dunn’s father, Steve, played football

letterwinner at Cal from 1982-85 who made one of the five laterals during “The
Play” as a freshman. Ortega’s father, David, is in the Cal Athletic Hall of Fame
and is the school’s all-time tackles leader and currently works in the Cal public

2016 California Football Game Notes (vs. Hawai’i, Aug. 26/27, 2016)
HEAD COACH SONNY DYKES
Sonny Dykes has returned Cal football to national
prominence and the postseason in his first three seasons
as the head coach in Berkeley. The team’s seven-win
turnaround over the last two campaigns from a 1-11 record
in 2013 to an 8-5 mark in 2015 is tied for the second best
in school history behind only the eight-win improvement
from a 2-10 mark in 1946 to a 10-1 record in 1948.
Dykes’ success has earned him a contact extension
through the 2019 season.
Cal’s eight wins in the Bears’ third campaign under
Dykes in 2015 in his 21st campaign as a collegiate football
coach marked the school’s most victories since 2009, capping the season
with a win over Air Force at the Lockheed Martin Armed Forces Bowl. The bowl
victory was Cal’s first postseason win since 2008 in its first bowl appearance
since 2011. Only 17 squads since the beginning of Cal football in 1882-83 have
won more game than the Bears did in 2015. In addition to serving as the head
coach, Dykes coached Cal’s outside receivers for the first time after working
with the same position group for nearly a decade in previous coaching stops.
Dykes was named to the midseason watch list for the 2015 Dodd Trophy
for the Bears’ success with the 20 head coaches on the list selected for
representing programs with the highest ideals of leadership, scholarship and
integrity on and off the field as evidenced by a program that improved its singleseason Academic Progress Rate (APR) score by 46 points to 969 in the first
report date under Dykes and saw its four-year APR move up three points in its
second season with the number expected to be 997 (out of a possible 1,000)
the next time the numbers are reported in the spring of 2016. In addition,
Dykes’ program has become one of Cal’s most active in the community.
Cal began the 2015 season with five straight victories to mark the
program’s best start since the Bears were also 5-0 in 2007 before dropping
four of their next six games to teams that were all ranked in the top 10 at some
point in 2015 including top-five foes Oregon and Utah, with four of those five
contests on the road. At one point, the Bears were in the national rankings for
four consecutive weeks (Weeks 4-7) and moved as high as No. 19 in the Amway
Coaches Poll and No. 20 in the AP Top 25 in Week 7. Cal’s national rankings
were its first since 2010 (coaches poll) and 2009 (AP Top 25).
But Cal finished strong with three wins in their final four contests over
Oregon State, Arizona State and Air Force. The Bears secured their first winning
season since 2011 with a dramatic 48-46 comeback victory that was won on
the final play of the game in the regular-season finale against Arizona State
after reaching bowl eligibility also for the first time since 2011 with their sixth
victory of the season over Oregon State two weeks earlier.
Cal’s offense flourished again in 2015, setting numerous records
including single-season school marks in passing yardage (4,892), passing
yards per game (376.3 ypg), passing touchdowns (44), total offense (6,879),
total yards per game (529.2 ypg), total touchdowns (63), scoring offense (37.9
ppg, modern-era record), first downs (341) and first downs passing (201), with
all the marks previously set in 2013 or 2014.
Cal ranked third nationally in passing offense, eighth in total offense and
17th in scoring offense in 2015, with all of the numbers second in the Pac-12.
Cal also set single-game team records in 2015 with 760 yards of total
offense and 36 first downs vs. Oregon State, while tying a modern-era school
record with 10 extra-point attempts vs. Grambling State.
Quarterback Jared Goff, who was selected No. 1 overall in the 2016 NFL
Draft by the Los Angeles Rams, set 26 school records during his three seasons
and started all 37 of Cal’s games at quarterback from 2013-15 including
career marks for passing yardage (12,220), touchdown passes (96), total
offense (12,086) and completions (977). He also finished his career second
on the school’s all-time list for passing efficiency (143.95) behind only Aaron
Rodgers. He ranks third all-time in Pac-12 history in passing yardage and fourth
in passing touchdowns, while he is 26th nationally in passing yards and 27th
in passing touchdowns.
Cal was the only team in the nation to have six receivers with 40 or more
catches in 2015 – Kenny Lawler (52-658, 13 TD), Darius Powe (47-560, 8 TD),
Bryce Treggs (45-956, 7 TD), Stephen Anderson (41-474, 2 TD), Trevor Davis
(40-672, 2 TD) and Maurice Harris (40-558, 6 TD). The Bears also had three
500-yard rushers – Khalfani Muhammad (87-586, 1 TD), Vic Enwere (106-505,
8 TD) and Tre Watson (89-504, 3 TD) – to become the first college football team
in recorded history to have six players with 40 or more receptions and three
500-yard rushers in the same season.
Cal also made tremendous improvements on defense in 2015 especially
in the turnover numbers, tying for 11th in the nation in fumbles recovered (12),
tying for 13th in turnovers gained (27) and tying for 23rd in interceptions (15).
Cal was also tied for 25th nationally in defensive touchdowns with three. In the
Pac-12, tied for the lead league in fumbles recovered while ranking tied for
second in turnovers gained and interceptions.
There was already a tremendous amount of optimism at Cal heading into
the 2015 season after the Bears’ four-win improvement in 2014 that was the
best turnaround for the program since 2002 and left Cal one victory shy of
playing in its first bowl game since 2011.
Cal finished the 2014 season with a 5-7 overall record and a 3-6 mark in
conference action to place fourth in the Pac-12 North for its highest showing
since the 2011 team was also fourth. Cal won four of its first five games
beginning with back-to-back victories over Northwestern and Sacramento
State. After a heartbreaking loss on a Hail Mary on the final play of the game
in its Pac-12 opener at Arizona, the Bears recovered by scoring a combined
119 points in back-to-back thrilling and record-setting victories over Colorado
(in double overtime) and at Washington State. Cal’s 4-1 start and a 2-1 Pac-12
record put the Bears in first place (Pac-12 North) three games into the league
schedule for the first time since 2006. Cal picked up its fifth and final win of the
campaign at Oregon State.
Dykes came to Cal after spending three seasons at Louisiana Tech where
he directed an offense that led the nation in both scoring offense (51.50 ppg)
and total offense (577.92 ypg) during his final campaign at the helm in 2012.
He spent three seasons as head coach for the Bulldogs, compiling a 22-15
record and winning 16 of 17 regular-season games during one stretch over the
2011 and 2012 schedules.
During his tenure at Louisiana Tech, Dykes engineered a turnaround for
a program that improved all three seasons under his leadership. The Bulldogs
were 4-8 the year before he arrived in 2009, then proceeded to finish 5-7,
8-5 and 9-3 in successive campaigns. In 2011, Louisiana Tech started just
1-4 before winning seven consecutive games to capture the Western Athletic
Conference title – the team’s first league championship in a decade – and a
berth in the Poinsettia Bowl. Dykes was named the WAC Coach of the Year.
Dykes, the son of former longtime Texas Tech coach Spike Dykes, boasts a
resume that includes additional stops in the Pac-12, Big 12 and SEC, where he
served under such head coaches as Mike Stoops (Arizona), Mike Leach (Texas
Tech) and Hal Mumme (Kentucky).
Born in Big Springs, Texas, Dykes received his bachelor’s degree in history
from Texas Tech in 1993 and was a member of the Red Raider baseball team
for two seasons. He is married to the former Kate Golding and they have two
daughters, Alta (Ally) and Charlotte (Charlie).

CAL-HAWAI’I SERIES HISTORY
Series History
Hawai’i 21, at Cal 7
Series tied, 2-2
September 17, 1994• Attendance: 41,000
BERKELEY – Despite a strong defensive performance, Cal saw Hawai’i turn two blocked
punts into touchdowns, rallying the Rainbows to a 21-7 upset win in Berkeley.
Cal had chances early to take control of the game, but couldn’t take advantage of the
opportunities. The Golden Bears’ lone touchdown was actually the first touchdown of the
game, as running back Reynard Rutherford pushed himself into the endzone on a one-yard
run. Rutherford ended the day with 16 carries for 57 yards and a touchdown.
The first of two blocked punts returned for touchdowns by Hawai’i put the game at a 7-7
tie at halftime, despite the Cal defense preventing the Rainbows from entering Cal territory
in the entire first half.
The Bears had two receivers collected 100 receiving yards in Iheanyi Uwaezuoke (8-115)
and Na’il Benjamin (8-106). The duo became, at the time, only the fourth pair of Cal receivers
to top 100 receiving yards in a game in program history.
