Cal football can hope for the Best

Cal fans held their breath Saturday night as Jahvid Best was wheeled off of the field on a stretcher. After jumping into the end zone for a touchdown, Jahvid fell onto his neck/back, launching his helmet off, and knocking him unconscious. Medics rushed to his side as teammates took a knee and watched this Heisman Trophy contender lay motionless.

Sunday morning broke better news that Best had suffered a concussion, his second in 2 weeks, and remarkably no other injuries. With their all-star running back out this week, the Golden Bears still have to face upcoming games against Arizona, Stanford, and Washington. The teams temporary loss of Best and a record of 6-3, 3-3 in the Pac-10, puts on an additional pressure to come out with a winning season, and possibly a bowl game.
