Who’s excited for the most nationally anticipated Cal football game in years?

Honestly, Cal's place on this chart was less of a concern to me than where Minnesota and Boston College showed up.

Dead pop tart

2nd quarter summary

I think they may have Luis Felipe’s position off on that formation

Wow, the only UCLA season in the ballpark of how bad 2025 has gone is a wartime season

An unremarkable-at-best Pitt team absolutely bludgeoning Boston College is not the greatest of omens

I'd be fascinated to know what kind of insurance policy BYU athletics has.

OC has been shockingly passive for a team that desperately needs 3 points and is playing Sac’s B team

Which possible scorigami would be more fun:

40-40
or
46-40
or
44-44

They could try to go the college football route of "please fans literally can you pay player salaries? You want us to be good and win games, right? Would be a shame if you didn't support us and we got relegated!"

2. Surely I won't be getting a ton of usage out of this:

Everybody take a drink, it's Cal at the center of a CFB scatterplot!

Really unfortunate news both for Abigor and Cal. Her freshman year numbers portended a really valuable college career

Anybody know what Pappy's hair care routine was like? That style is SLICK.

Go [heaviest of sighs] Bears

College football season is back, which means Cal/Justin Wilcox at the dead center of a performance scatter plot graph is back

Yeah, we got worse in those areas but better on both lines and on special teams. It’s the Wilcox treadmill, different units ebb and flow and it always adds up to ~6-6

Eh, I see this year and last year as roughly equally talented

There’s losing, and then there’s a 47 point difference between what the spread says and what happens to you

Maybe the greatest no show performance in Cal history

Go Bears!

Love me some Pappy, but Andy Smith is the Cal GOAT no doubt

The year of “Losing to [insert area G5 also ran] is bad enough but we’re getting our asses kicked” across the country

My personal guess from limited evidence is that whatever injury he suffered against UC Davis last year has (permanently?) sapped him of the explosiveness that made him a special back, and Oklahoma has realized that behind the scenes.

Still waiting for that 1-in-100 season, maybe just maybe . . .

still horrified from the moment recording the @splitzoneduo.com Big Ten preview when Alex read my notes on UCLA and said "Rodger I hear you're optimistic about UCLA this year." I quickly corrected him but it was terrifying that even for a moment anyone thought I was optimistic about UCLA

Moments after this they showed him on the jumbo trim drinking a beer through a straw

Just shotgunned a beer with Zack Follett on Memorial Glade, life is good
