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 […]
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 […]
The Bears Are Roaring (Blog Reactions to Louisiana Tech)
Bear Talk: One thing is for certain: The offensive line continues to do the job. Yes, there were a few false start penalties, but the line provided running room for Justin Forsett and gave quarterback Nate Longshore time to throw. Cal’s O-line has been a strength all season so far. As a matter of fact, […]
Quick Hits, Cal-Louisiana Tech
Here are the ruminations from the beatdown of the Bulldogs. –I’ve been noticing it more and more, but Longshore tends to hesitate on his passes. He takes his steps back in the pocket, steps forward…then…waits one step too many to unleash the ball. It’s as if he’s trying to make the perfect throw when he […]
Nate Longshore, Airing It Deep
No official confirmation, but it looks legit (who the hell would want to fake taking Pilates classes and Ling 1A with an awesome teacher?)–Nate Longshore’s blog is up. Say what you want, but the man does seem to have a full load on his plate. And that Fall Camp Schedule definitely provides a little peak […]
Time To Start Growling (Cal-Louisiana Tech Soliloquy)
[youtube C-eKvxbrA_o] See this up there Cal fans? This was you two weeks ago when the Vols came a calling. Not hard to understand why you seemed a little groggy–in Week 1 you always seem to need a little cajoling to get those voices howling. You’ve been in hibernation for nine long months, waiting for […]
Marshawn, Pile Driver
[youtube dcIvgiNWG1g] As a Bills fan, I can’t watch the end of this clip. It’s just too painful. But from the looks of it, Marshawn seems like the first real Tedford offensive star. Now only if Kyle Boller could stop getting placed in awful situations and Brett Favre’s legs could fall off. And of course, […]
Bullish About the Dogs–A Look into Louisiana Tech
Every week, I try to interact with fans of Cal’s upcoming opponent to get an idea as to what to expect (Tennessee was Week 1, Colorado State Week 2). Every week, between the madness, the homers, and the trolls, useful information comes out. I post this in a weekly installment. This week the opponent is […]
Let’s See the SEC Pull This Awesomeness Off
[youtube mLrpXluShRU] I say we just send these two guys on the road to Autzen, and hook them up with some pimped out speakers, and confuse the audience into thinking they’re attending a Vanessa Mae concert. Better yet, why not just send a string quartet out for halftime? Everyone outside the Pac-10 already looks […]
