The Bears held a long full-pad workout tonight, putting the finishing touches on the second week of camp. Technically, there is still one week left. But practically, camp ends Tuesday with the team’s final scrimmage of the fall. Wednesday, the Bears will start preparing for Michigan State.

The highlight of Sunday’s practice was the red zone work at the end. Nate Longshore and Kevin Riley took turns throwing touchdown passes. First, Longshore connected with LaReylle Cunningham, who caught the pass short of the end zone and reached his arm over the goal line for the score. There was some dispute if Cunningham actually scored or not, but recruiting assistant Kevin Parker, standing on the goal line, gave the touchdown signal, much to the delight of the offense.

On the very next rep, Kevin Riley found a wide-open Nyan Boateng in the back of the end zone. Longshore came back to throw a touchdown pass to Sean Young, and what followed may have been the play of training camp.

Riley was pressured out of the pocket, bought some time, then zipped a pass through traffic that hit freshman tight end Anthony MIller perfectly in stride for another score. That was the final play of practice, and it sent the team off for conditioning drills hooting and hollering.

There wasn’t too much else that stood out Sunday. One positive development is that linebacker Worrell Williams (abdominal strain) and safety Marcus Ezeff (thigh bruise) returned to practice. The Bears spent a good amount of time on special teams. Jahvid Best, Shane Vereen, Jeremy Ross, Darian Hagan and Marvin Jones took turns receiving kickoffs. Best, Vereen, Jones and Sean Young were the punt returners.

The Bears have been experimenting using offensive lineman Kevin Bemoll at nose tackle. With Mika Kane and Derrick Hill both out with ankle sprains, Cal has moved Bemoll to the other side of the ball, something they were going to experiment with in goal line situations anyway. Bemoll got the team going when he batted away a Riley pass at the line of scrimmage, and it ended up as an interception for linebacker Mychal Kendricks.

“We have a lot of guys hurt right now at that position so it’s a good time to see what he can do,” Cal coach Jeff Tedford said. “He’s really excited about the opportunity to try to get that done. He’s pumped up about it.”

Cal has a double-day scheduled for Monday, in helmets and shoulder pads in the morning and helmets only at night.
