Jackson just cannot pass. We badly need a QB.


I question our receivers more, other than hunter nobody has consistently done anything.

SJ 12 of 23, at least no picks.

No trick plays for Cal? No passes from the HB or WR.

Cal just feels like a football program on it's last gasps of life.

There's no reason to be hopeful about this season, and zero reason for optimism for the future.

I'd take ifanse out. Save him a bit. Play the 3rd and 4th stringers.

Can we line up later during the playclock in the future as we burn time to victory. I don't get making the line hold a stance for 30 seconds.

When will Wilcox ever get fired……. It's criminal to be paying a coach this much money with below .500 average winning.

And why is this kicker still on the team…..

Nothing good about this Cal team. Not sure we can win any more games this season
Maybe Stanford. Maybe.

This season may be tough, but it will be easier in the ACC. One less conference opponent and an easier conference.

And 2 TDs plus a rushing TD in his second start with 4 seasons of eligibility remaining.

Do me a favor. If you are just going to spam negativity, please dont. I know this game wasnt great, and yes, I'm concerned about when the next win will happen but I'm tired everyone ****ting on everything at all times. I'm tired of being surrounded by constant negativity.

Why would you waste those against an FCS opponent?

On the road against Power 2. So yeah we are toast ... on national TV. Hate when I can forecast a crappy Saturday night.

Outscored idaho by two td's. Nearly out gained them. Several turnovers. What's to complain about?

Practice. To make the opponents work harder.

So Wilcox and Spavital (13-35 at Texas State) haven't juiced the playbook all summer... should Plough be given more input?

His name is Luckhurst because every field goal attempt is a coin flip?

Oh well. Our Bears did score the last 31 points. On to the next one.

Yeah, we are going to get crushed. Not even so much about Cal being bad, but UW looks real good.

Thanks to Knowlton, if we fire Wilcox after this season it would cost $20 million. And this with Knowlton already borrowing $20 million a year and about to take a $20 million (?) revenue decrease with an increase in travel expenses.

Oh gosh… there is very little to be positive about Lol

One (1) completion to the TE today, and one last week.

How much misdirection, fly sweeps, etc.?

Why are you randomly quoting Herbert Hoover from the 1932 presidential campaign?

The first half. That's what there is to complain about. The first half.

Credit where credit is due - the Bear neither quit nor died. I'll take the win, but the offense is a work in progress.

Surprised we won. SJ5 Is not the dynamic quarterback that we were hoping for though it is nice to see him occasionally get chunks with his legs. Playcalling certainly seems questionable at times but it is nice to score more points than we did last year. The repeated running up the middle often feels like the coaches see a different game than what's actually taking place.

Gonna be a difficult season to reach a bowl based upon how things look. Just another version of Wilcox football.

It's the typical Wilcox playbook for the patsy game at home. We come out of the gates playing a vanilla scheme and with low energy. Time to stop being surprised about it.

Usually we wind up getting our s*** together enough to win. Sometimes we drop one to Nevada.

Now in fairness to Idaho, they do appear to be a legitimately good FCS team this year.

He shows flashes of the big play ability, both with his arm and his legs, but he seems incapable of doing the intermediate timing routes. Its a tough trade-off between consistent intermediate plays with no hope of the big play, versus struggling with the intermediate but having a big play ability.

To be fair, we were missing our biggest offensive weapon.
