Cal Team Notes

  • Finished with a 2-6 record in ACC play this year.
  • Starting QB Fernando Mendoza hit the transfer portal. Backup Chandler Rogers was injured in relief duty during Week 14.
  • Ohio transfer C.J. Harris–who has bowl game and conference championship game experience–could be the starter. Expect a nearly run-only approach offensively if that’s the case. Otherwise, would be freshman QB E.J. Caminong.
  • Watch for star running back Jadyn Ott to opt out for the NFL Draft.
  • Could be without three starting offensive linemen: LT Nick Morrow (hurt, will not play), RG Bastian Swinney (probable), and LG Sioape Vatikani (questionable).

UNLV Team Notes

  • Head coach Barry Odom leaves to take the vacant Purdue opening.
  • OC Brennan Marion removed all mention of UNLV from his socials. Though he has not formally been hired anywhere, it appears he will not be a part of the program for this bowl game
  • Watch for NFL-bound receiver Ricky White III to opt out
  • Top corner Tony Grimes entered the transfer portal but will play
  • NFL-bound LB Jackson Woodard also announced he would play in this game
