Excerpt:
Jeff Tedford listens to his own counsel, not the unwashed masses: Many California fans developed a dislike of quarterback Nate Longshore during last season's downturn and were rooting hard for Kevin Riley to beat him out. Riley's winning the job with a late surge during the preseason went over well. So when Tedford announced that the quarterback competition had re-opened following a 42-7 win over Colorado State because the Bears coach wanted the offense to start faster, there was a lot of hand-wringing. But after Longshore completed 17 of 28 passes for 198 yards and three touchdowns with one interception in the victory over Arizona State, he appears poised to start again against Arizona on Oct. 18. By the way, Longhshore's three TD passes give him 46 for his career, which ranks fifth on Cal's all-time list.
