First big blow of the day for the Bears: #Cal center Chris Adcock will not play today with a knee injury that will end his season.

Source close to Adcock says ACL, PCL, will have surgery next week. #Cal reps won't comment on exact nature of injury.

MT @CalRivals With Cochran already out, Brazinski will start at center for the Bears in place of Adcock & Tyndall will likely back him up.

Jared Goff is taking snaps from Mark Brazisnki in pregame warmups. Looks like he will start at center #CalFootball

Sonny Dykes just commented to Todd McKim on #Cal radio that Brazinski will start in Adcock's place

Brazinski was seen taking pregame snaps with Jared Goff, and is the number two center on the depth chart, so expect to see him start at center in place of Adcock.
Bill Tyndall will back up Brazinski at center. Matt Cochran is still out due to an ankle injury and would be a candidate for the center position when he returns.
Full statement from Cal Media Relations:
Junior offensive lineman Chris Adcock will miss the remainder of the 2013 campaign after injuring his knee in practice on Wednesday. Adcock started each of the team's first four games at center this season. He has played in 19 games with 15 starts during his collegiate career that began at Cal in 2010.
[Adcock] suffered a season-ending knee injury during last Wednesday's practice.
