Quarterbacks

A-

Sean Canfield continued his stellar season. He threw for two touchdowns and ran for another. Passing game carried the offense.

Running backs

C

Cal stuffed the run game so Jacquizz Rodgers wasn't dominant like usual. He did what he could and Ryan McCants was a good backup.

Wide receivers

A-

TE Joe Halahuni had another big game, earning more calls where he's the primary receiver. The regular receivers were efficient.

Offensive line

B

There was plenty of time to pass for the Canfield, but the running lanes were hard to find. All the good runs were to the outside.

Defensive line

B+

Playing DEs Gabe Miller and Matt LaGrone more made a difference in pressure. Stephen Paea was a monster in the middle.

Linebackers

A

Keaton Kristick was an animal rushing the passer and stuffing the run. The Beavers contained Cal's powerful running game all night.

Secondary

B

The coverage was a little soft over the middle with several mid-range passes allowed, but overall coverage was consistent.

Special teams

B

Kicking game had no major hitches. The coverage teams contained Cal and the return game gave the offense decent to good field position.

Coaching

A

The offense calls adapted quickly when the running game wasn't there, and the defense was ready for what Cal did. Overall good preparation.
