Cal football’s fall 2021 season has come to a close, and a total of 11 Bears have been recognized for their play.

Headlining the bunch is Elijah Hicks, who was named to the All-Pac-12 first team. The fifth-year senior safety tallied a career-high three interceptions and 72 tackles over the course of the season, which was the second-most of any player on the Bears’ roster. This is his first career postseason all-conference team selection.

Alongside Hicks are 10 Bears who earned Pac-12 honorable mentions: tight end Nick Alftin, offensive lineman Ben Coleman, quarterback Chase Garbers, outside linebacker Marqez Bimage, offensive lineman Matthew Cindric, outside linebacker Cameron Goode, cornerback Lu-Magia Hearns III, defensive end JH Tevis, wide receiver Nikko Remigio and offensive lineman McKade Mettauer.

Most notably, Goode led the team this season with nine tackles for loss and 7 ½ sacks. This marks the redshirt senior’s third consecutive honorable mention by the Pac-12. Besides Goode, Remigio is now the only other Bear recognized with multiple honorable mentions under his belt. The 2021 team captain boasted a career-high-tying 38 catches and ranked second in the conference in kickoff return average this season.

Miscommunications on defense, poor alignments and a truly awful selection of both offensive and defensive play calls left much to be desired. In other words, the Stanford football team had the same abysmal organizational skills as the Stanford band at halftime.
