Arizona will not face Cal's Best...

In the Stands Report by Bookemdano: Chances are Cal's great running back Jahvid Best will not play on Saturday when the Arizona Wildcats take on the Golden Bears at California Memorial Stadium in Berkeley.

On the other side of the coin, chances are Arizona's top running back Nic Grigsby will not take the field either. Is it a trade off? Not hardly. Best, a junior, has carried the ball 141 times this season for a total of 867 yards and 12 touchdowns. In his three years at Berkeley, Best has logged 2,668 yards. Grigsby, on the other hand, has been limited to just 71 carries for 535 hard-earned yards.

It seems like Grigsby has been hurt all season, while Best received a concussion in a game last week against Oregon State. Both teams have plenty of running backs to run in and out of the game and the game will probably be won in the trenches. And I like the way Arizona's big men are playing up front. I give the edge to the Wildcats and go out on a limb and predict an 11-point Arizona win, 31-20.
