Jaydn Ott, California, Player News

The California Golden Bears shook off a rusty start to open their inaugural ACC season with 31-13 win over UC Davis on Saturday, their 12th straight win over the Aggies to remain undefeated in 34 starts against the Big-Sky Conference. The Bears found the ir stride late in the game after a slow and messy start. Aggies new coach Tim Plough's offensive scheme was innovative enough to make the game competitive through the third quarter. Bears quarterback Fernando Mendoza earned the start over Chandler Rogers after a contentious fall camp and threw for 158 yards and a touchdown, completing 15 of 22 attempts.Running in shotgun formation without a huddle, Mendoza looked uncomfortable under center. Meanwhile Jadyn Ott, who averaged 92.2 rushing yards per game last season, was stifled with only six carries and 11 yards in the first two quarters. Cal was forced to punt three times. Ott finished the game with 49 rushing yards and two touchdowns but was sidelined with a late injury. The Aggies put up 14 poi nts behind a fumble recovery by Porter Connors and a one-yard rushing touchdown from Lan Larison. - AP College Football

Jaydn Ott ran for 274 yards and three touchdowns and California opened Pac-12 play with a 49-31 victory over Arizona on Saturday. Ott scored on a 73-yard run on the second play from scrimmage, an improbable 18-yarder in the third quarter after he had app eared to be stopped for a short gain, and then another 72-yarder to ice it late in the fourth. Ott had the third most rushing yards in school history, trailing only Jahvid Best's 311 against Washington in 2008 and Jerry Drew's 283 against Oregon State in 1954.Jack Plummer added three TD passes for the Golden Bears (3-1, 1-0), who won their sixth straight home game. It's their longest winning streak at Memorial Stadium since a nine-gamer in 2008-09. Cal also ended a six-game skid against Arizona ( 2-2, 0-1) by beating the Wildcats for the first time since 2009. Jayden de Laura threw for 401 yards and two touchdowns for the Wildcats (2-2, 0-1), who had no answers defensively and lost their 12th straight conference road game. A year after Arizona be at COVID-depleted Cal 10-3 at home for its only win in 2021, the teams exceeded that point total after both teams scored touchdowns on the opening drive. It was a back-and-forth, high-scoring affair in the first half with Ott scoring on a 73-yard run on the second play from scrimmage to set the tone. - California/AP College Football

Jaydn Ott scored two touchdowns, one on the ground and one through the air, and California's defense stiffened late to lead the Bears to a 20-14 victory over UNLV on Saturday. Cal (2-0) made three fourth-down stops in the second half, including a fourth and goal opportunity for the Rebels from the Cal 8 with 2:46 remaining that preserved Cal's six-point lead. UNLV got the ball back one more time with 1:03 remaining, but Isaiah Young intercepted UNLV quarterback Doug Brumfield deep in Cal territory on th e game's final play. Jack Plummer threw for 278 yards and a touchdown as the Golden Bears got off to a fast start on offense. But after taking a 20-7 lead on a Dario Longhetto field goal midway through the third quarter, Cal's offense stalled and UNLV (1 -1) grabbed momentum.Aidan Robbins rushed for 84 yards for UNLV, including a 31-yard score in the third that brought the Rebels to within 20-14. Three times Cal drove to UNLV's 10-yard line or deeper and didn't get touchdowns. The Bears settled fo r two field goals and Plummer was intercepted on the third drive. After being held to minus-1 yard of offense in the first quarter last week against UC Davis, the Bears got off to a fast start Saturday and led 14-0 after the first. Plummer completed his first eight passes and consistently found open receivers against a UNLV secondary that also was called for pass interference three times in the game. Ott scored on a 2-yard run and added a 12-yard touchdown catch later in the first, taking a short pass i n the flat and making a leaping dive into the end zone on a fourth-and-2 play to give Cal a 14-0 lead. Kyle Williams got UNLV on the board with an 11-yard touchdown catch on the first play of the second quarter, but Dario Longhetto's 20-yard field goal g ave Cal a 17-7 lead at halftime. - California/AP College Football
