The California fans ensnared DeSean Jackson with a lot more success than the Tennessee defense, wrapping up the Golden Bears' electrifying star in a postgame mesh of hugs and cheers — even trying to rip off his signature stocking cap.

This celebration was a full year in the making the 12th-ranked Golden Bears, who scored one for the whole West Coast when they simply outscored the Volunteers in a redemptive win.

Jackson scampered 77 yards for his sixth career punt return for a touchdown, and Golden Bears avenged last season's humiliating loss at No. 15 Tennessee with a 45-31 victory Saturday night.

Justin Forsett rushed for 156 yards and a score, and Nate Longshore passed for 241 yards and two TDs as the Bears racked up the most points scored against the Volunteers in 12 years to win the opening weekend's only matchup between ranked schools.
