On the Cal podcast with Morris, there is little doubt while the Golden Bears await their next opponent the Texas Longhorns for their next game on Saturday the 17th at Memorial Stadium they badly want to make amends for the loss to the San Diego State Aztecs on Saturday September 10th. The Aztecs running back Donnel Pumphrey was almost a one man demo team against the Cal defense running for 281 yards and scoring three touchdowns. The game allowed Pumphrey to surpass the school’s all time rushing record held by former NFL great Marshall Faulk.

Pumphrey is on the all time rushing list in the top 50 in passing with Faulk, Earl Campbell, Eric Dickerson at SD State which he accomplished on Saturday night. What happened last season Cal allowed 82 yards rushing for Pumphrey in the Aztecs loss to the Bears. Cal was able to control the scoreboard in order to put SD State on their heels and putting them behind.
