California's 42-7 win over Colorado State wasn't nearly as good for the Bears offense as it sounds.

First, Cal only gained 348 total yards, a good but hardly spectacular total. QB Kevin Riley only completed six of 13 throws for 59 yards and he's still not in sync with his receivers.

But the worst part is that running back Jahvid Best left the game with a dislocated left elbow early in the third quarter.

Coach Jeff Tedford said that Best will have an MRI on Sunday, but there were no broken bones.

Best, who entered the game leading the Pac-10 with 112 yards rushing per game, had 85 yards on 11 carries when he was hurt.
