The Friday updated injury report for Cal's Saturday's game against 23rd-ranked SMU provided some good news and some bad news for the Bears.

Cal (3-4, 2-2 ACC) is likely to have its two best wide receivers available for Saturday's game against the Mustangs (5-1, 3-1 ACC). Chase Hendricks, who leads the Bears in receptions with 39, has been healthy all week and there was no doubt he would play against SMU.

The question was Ian Strong, who has 28 catches for 396 yards this season. He missed last week's game with an injury and he was listed as questionable this week on injury reports on Wednesday and Thursday. However, his status was upgraded to probable on Friday, which means he is likely to be available against SMU.

However, three other Cal wide receivers who would get playing time -- Cooper Perry (eight catches, 111 yards), Jordan King (11 catches, 108 yards) and Mark Hamper (five catches, 60 yards) -- have been downgraded from their questionable listing on Thursday to doubtful on Friday.…
