A quick look at the news to come out of Cal head coach Sonny Dykes’ media availability Thursday at Memorial Stadium, his last before the Bears host Washington State at 1 p.m. PT Saturday.

>> Dykes anticipates running back Daniel Lasco, who missed the past two games with a strained muscle in his hip, being available against the Cougars.

“He’s practiced all week,” Dykes said. “He’s gotten all the reps in practice. I’d expect him to play, unless he doesn’t feel good tomorrow. We’ll warm him up and see how he feels.”

He also said defensive end DeVante Wilson (foot), wide receiver Matt Rockett (knee) and safety Griffin Piatt (knee) should play. Left tackle Brian Farley, who suffered an ankle injury last week at Washington, will “dress and have an opportunity to play,” Dykes said.

Wide receiver Jack Austin (foot) will miss another “couple weeks,” Dykes said, and linebacker Aisea Tongilava will be longer than that. When asked whether Tongilava could miss the season, Dykes said, “Potentially, we’ll see.”

>> Here is Dykes’ overview of how practice went this week:

“It was good. I thought our guys practiced hard, I thought we were focused. I thought we were especially focused today. It was probably the best Thursday practice we’ve had this season. Guys are tuned in. I thought it was a good day today, and I thought we had two good work days on Tuesday and Wednesday. … I think we’ve got a little pep in our step, and I think guys are excited to play.”

>> The Bears are coming off last week’s five-sack performance in Seattle. But getting to the quarterback figures to be tougher Saturday, when they face a veteran-laden Cougars offensive line. WSU is allowing just 1.7 sacks per game this season.

“If there’s anyone that’s proven how important experience (on the offensive line) is, it ought to be us,” Dykes said. “Washington State’s guys have played a lot of snaps, so they’re good players. They’re big and strong. It’ll be a bigger challenge for us in terms of pressuring the passer.”
