His varsity career record at MC was 39-4 and his overall MC career was 49-4 with 7,914 passing yards and 93 touchdown passes. 

Goff started his college career at the University of California, Berkeley in 2013, where he began all 37 games during his three seasons (2013-15) at Cal and is the only quarterback in school history to start his first game as a true freshman. He set 26 Cal records including career marks for passing yards (12,220), passing yards per game (329.7 ypg), TD passes (96), completions (977), passing attempts (1,569), total offense (12,086) and total plays (1,739). In his final season as a junior in 2015, Goff established then-Pac-12 single-season records with 4,719 yards passing and 43 touchdown passes while becoming the first Cal quarterback to earn first-team All-Pac-12 honors since Aaron Rodgers in 2004. In 2015, Goff led the Cal team to an 8-5 Cal winning record and a bowl game appearance for the first time since 2011, as well as a post-season win for the first time since 2008 with a 55-36 victory over Air Force in the Lockheed Martin Armed Forces Bowl. Goff became Cal's second No. 1 overall selection in the NFL Draft when the Los Angeles Rams made him the first pick on April 28, 2016.
