Quarterback Jared Goff could be a first round pick in the 2016 NFL draft, and he’s playing like it at the moment, averaging 310 passing yards per game, with 11 touchdowns. Goff has the Bears off to a 4-0 start, ranked in the Associated Press top 25 (at No. 24) for the first time since 2010. Goff tied the school record for touchdown passes (64) against Washington and could pass Kyle Boller for sole possession of the record when the Golden Bears play Washington State.
