After a 13-minute delay, Jahvid Best was taken off the field. A preliminary evaluation concluded that he had sustained a concussion.

On January 15, 2009 Best underwent surgery to tighten a ligament that had been injured when he dislocated his left elbow against Colorado State on September 27, 2008. This was followed up by foot surgery on January 23 to relieve the irritation of an extra bone that was caused when Jahvid Best bruised his foot halfway through the 2008 season. He missed spring football practice as a result. Best was named as the most explosive player in college football by Rivals.com in February 2009. In early June Jahvid Best was able to participate in team summer workouts without pain.

On September 12 against Eastern Washington, he rushed for 144 yards and one touchdown, and had one 22 yard receiving touchdown. On September 19 against Minnesota he ran for 131 yards and all of Cal’s five touchdowns in the victory, a personal best and a modern school record.
