Virginia Tech (4-1) travels to Berkeley to face California (2-3) on October 10, 2026. After a heartbreaking 35-33 loss to Pittsburgh, the Hokies need a win. Ethan Grunkemeyer threw for 434 yards and 3 TDs last week, while Que'Sean Brown recorded 147 receiving yards.

Key factors include fixing the struggling run game led by Jeffrey Overton Jr., containing Cal's Cataurus Hicks, and maintaining defensive discipline. Kaleb Spencer and Aycen Stevens must limit turnovers and explosive plays.

Topics covered: Matchup analysis, injury updates, QB depth with Bryce Baker and Troy Huhn, and predictions for a 34-27 Virginia Tech victory driven by Grunkemeyer's passing dominance.
