OUR PREDICTION: Washington quarterback Jake Browning leads the FBS in touchdown rate at 14.6 according to ESPN.com. He’s thrown 28 touchdowns in just 192 attempts and he will break Keith Price’s mark of 33 touchdown passes in 2011 for the most in school history. The Golden Bears rank 124th in the nation in points allowed, surrendering a whopping 41.8 points per game. Washington has been outstanding defensively this season, but Cal is averaging 41.2 points per contest, which ranks 14th in the country. This should be a high-scoring affair tonight in Berkeley.
