C.J. Anderson

Isi Sofele was the starter as a junior in 2011 and will resume the same role in 2012. Anderson was the backup and compiled 345 yards on the season, averaging 4.8 yards per carry. Anderson possesses value in deep and Pac-12-only leagues despite his backup status, however, because he emerged as a significant touchdown for California last year, scoring eight touchdowns on the ground. Anderson gives California a bigger, stronger complement to the tiny Sofele and should maintain a solid change-of-pace role.
