The Bears also need to prove to themselves that they can win with Devon Modster as their quarterback. Cal is 4-0 in games in which Chase Garbers played more than a half, but 0-2 when Modster played more than a half.
Although Cal hopes Garbers will play again this season, Wilcox would not offer a timetable for his return.
“That would be up to the doctors,” he said. “I’m not qualified to answer that question.”
- In the Wilcox era (and prior, as well) the Bears have struggled to win in October.
