The Bears Are Roaring (Blog Reactions to Arizona)
Jason Snell, Excuse Me For My Voice: “I also didn’t like Mike Stoops very much. He lost it a few times on the sidelines, which didn’t impress me. I really appreciated his playcalling in last year’s Cal-Arizona game, where he boldly went for it on every occasion because he knew he couldn’t win otherwise. And [...]
Bear Up (Cal-Arizona Recap)
A few things to say about this game before I turn it over to the people who know things about football.
–One dominating quarter was all Cal really needed before they started cruise controlling for Oregon. Rather strange that the Bears took the pedal off the break that early–they played average ho-hum ball through the mid [...]
The Stat Gods Smile On Marshawn Lynch
Well…at least on his potential. One of the geniuses and/or stat geeks at Football Outsiders (who created the awesome Pro Football Prospectus, a must have for a pigskin nerd) has some interesting words about Marshawn (and the Pac-10 in general).
When I was compiling college statistics using the NCAA’s database (which covers teams from 2000-2006), I [...]
Downloading Simplicity…for Cal Games (TVUPlayer)
I’ve already told you about Sopcast for free TV. But it’s almost no good for college football coverage. For those of you without cable and without tickets (and without friends nearby with either), Cal-Arizona might be a little tough for some of you to view. But it’s always possible to find a way around these [...]
Tomorrow is A Good Day For Revenge (Cal-Arizona Soliloquy)
November 11, 2006. One of the 5 worst sporting days of my life (I’m sure for most Cal fans it’s tops, but I’ve crossed paths with Nick Anderson, Robert Horry, Peja Stojakovic, and Wychek to Dyson. So it’s easy to say I’ve been here before.). Sometimes it’s best to move forward by looking back. So [...]
Wild About the ‘Cats? (A Look Into Arizona)
It’s finally Pac-10 time. Time to get down to the heavy artillery, where I now must amplify every game’s importance. We’ve been through Tennessee, CSU, and Louisana Tech, but these next nine games are the ones that get the Bears to the Rose Bowl…and perhaps more. Time to defend the Pac-10 crown…and this time, win [...]
Lavelle Hawkins is Lonely
One man in our potent offense is getting neglected for all his hard work (he does have as many TD returns this year as Tha1). Lavelle wants you to start giving him some love on his big plays. Robert Jordan gets one on replacement punt returns–why shouldn’t he get dap? None of this “Roll on [...]
Today’s Berkeley Crazie: The Prophet
You know, some people provide important messages to the Cal community, alerting us to the impending End of Times. Enter Yoshua, the man who will lead us all to the Promised Land. Yoshua stands for Hebrew for your Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the one true God. All shall bow before him and his [...]
Downloading Simplicity Recap
Most students are starting to hit the grind, and the last thing they want to deal with is their laptops giving out on them and destroying their files (I live in mortal fear of this, everyday). Most of this has to do with using the crap you get with your XP or Vista system–although Vista [...]
Ask the Readers: Most Painful Defeat in Tedford Era
Time to poll you guys about bad memories. You can vote for the worst on the sidebar, and elaborate on them in the comments. Considering our grudge match against Arizona is coming up (easily the worst moment I’ve had as a Cal football fan, although I know the Holmoe students are grumbling.), I was wondering [...]
