Zero penalties against Utah


Well coached team. But also ranked team playing at home with PAC-12 refs


They held Brett johnson on the first offensive play by utah.

Utah has a mediocre offense and their starting QB is injured. This is way too easy for them.


The story of Cal.


Yes where understudies become heroes

Sonny Dykes was able to pull of a goal line stand. Can Wilcox? No way.

Every year I say this.........

Cal Rugby seldom miss tackles. Coach Clark played football at Cal, and Coach Billups played football for a national championship football team.

Get those two together with the defensive coaches and devote a solid amount of time to tackling techniques. Their teams are FAR better tacklers than our football team. And the rugby players don't have pads!!!!

Defense scheme and talent is awful

Had the stop, they pushed in. Tells us all we need to know. 85 yard drive. Wow. Simply outclassed.

Just got out muscled.

I want to say something more derogatory but I'll refrain.

The talent isn't bad enough that we should have the 118th ranked pass defense. Coaching is the much bigger issue.

Welp we all know where this is headed.

We just need one billionaire alum who cares and can we can be rid of this clown coach.

There is that aggressive offense I love to see from Wilcox at the end of the half.

Time to switch to Washington/Oregon on the big screen. Screw Wilcox. Go Niners.

21 seconds left and we just throw the towel in. Says it all. Don't wanna take even one shot?

This game is going how I thought it would.

I'm not too upset at the offense, distraught by another poor defensive performance.

Hasn't that been the M.O. every game so far?

The great Wilcox Defense comes through again!

Utah has 160 yards rushing in one half and had the ball for 20 ****ing minutes despite being totally one-dimensional.

How many more years does it take for Wilcox to realize Sirmon is a horrible defensive coordinator? Pathetic - he got ran out of Louisville and came to Cal where we give out paychecks to losers constantly.

Wilcox complains about missed tackles in his interview on the radio. Says there were five missed tackles on that last drive.

Unless he has brain damage, he already knows this but doesn't give a **** since Sirmon is his buddy and Wilcox has a guaranteed contract with zero pressure to perform.

just caught up and we somehow look even slower and less athletic at 5X speed

Washington made a bad hire, canned him after a year, and massively upgraded with DeBoer. We're on year 7(!) of having this clown in charge of our program and there's no end in sight. It's just so Cal.

That's normal. You don't chuck it up near your own end zone with 21 seconds left in the first half just to appease whining fans. You try to win the game.

There is nothing to be upset about on offense. Spavital is calling a great game, Mendoza is playing well, to the best of his ability and we are getting the ball into the hands of playmakers.

Defensive coaching is an issue.

We need to recruit and develop our lines. To soon to judge our new OL coach but we really need someone new as DL coach. Someone who can bring in lots of big fast, aggressive, smart, athletic players.

This. I listen to these NFL ex players talk about the importance of toughness in team culture. Especially hearing about it these days re the Detroit Lions and Dan C their HC. We clearly don't have that culture here.

You think Wilcox will fire sirmon, take over defensive calling? Would it even Help? Or is Wilcox a joke too.

That is not trying to win.

You don't have to "chuck it up" but try to run a play.

Examples like this all around. Only Cal is so pathetic that they not only retained the HC after they proved to be a failure but actually gave him another $30m for no ****ing reason.

Wilcox is very involved in the defensive play calling. They are collaborators.

Yeah but Jimmy Lake made it easy on them by proving a character-based impetus to firing him. Otherwise he might have lasted another year and they would have missed out on DeBoer

So what the hell instigates Wilcox to resign is the question, and how does he really convince anybody he is able to coach a damn if we go 4-8 again?
