BERKELEY, Calif. (AP) - Star tailback Jahvid Best hopes to return for California's season finale after being sidelined by a frightening fall and concussion.

Best said Wednesday that the symptoms from the concussion have
cleared but he still has a sore back. Best has been ruled out of Saturday's game against No. 14 Stanford but hopes to be able to return to the field Dec. 5 against Washington.

Best was injured Nov. 7 when he hurdled an Oregon State defender at the end of a 7-yard touchdown run in the second quarter. He fell on his back and head from about 8 feet in the air and was knocked unconscious. Best also sustained a minor concussion the previous week against Arizona State.

Best has 16 touchdowns and 867 yards rushing this season.
