Sacramento Bee: Trojans called all-time best: Other Pac-10 notes

Here is the link.

 

Excerpts:

 

Cal is projected to finish second for the fourth successive season after earning a share of the conference title for the first time since 1975, followed by UCLA, Arizona State and Oregon State.

 

BEWARE OF THE BEARS: Cal returns seven starters on offense, though tailback Marshawn Lynch took his talents to the NFL.  Bears coach Jeff Tedford has always raved about the ability of Justin Forsett, who rushed for 626 yards in backup duty last fall and is now the primary ballcarrier. What's more, Tedford has a game breaker in receiver-returner DeSean Jackson (21 touchdowns in 24 career games) and defensive anchors in cornerback Syd Thompson and linebacker Worrell Williams.

Syd Thompson a "defensive anchor"? That's a joke. The LBs--all down the depth chart--will be the anchor this year, as last.

Thompson was thrown in as a freshman last year. Eliminate the Ten. game and he had a pretty descent year for any corner let alone a freshman.
