But Utah, Washington, and Oregon all have viable paths as well.
On today’s episode of Locked On Pac-12, I also make a prediction for Cal Football’s record in 2023 under Justin Wilcox.
His seat is the hottest of any coach in the Conference heading into this season and has the tools to improve from their 4-8 mark last year.
Cal’s revamped offense will likely be led by TCU transfer QB Sam Jackson under new offensive coordinator Jake Spavital.
Their ability to make a bowl game in 2023 will depend on a few key games, including a Week Two showdown with SEC foe Auburn in Berkeley.
