The turnover from Jeremiah Hunter, that probably is the most irritating.

We are down 4 running backs.... I think Wilcox decided we were out of soldiers, and needed to end it here.

Also Cal was not going to stop SC in OT

We certainly gave it all we had.... I'm proud of our Bears today. They played really, really hard, and I'm gutted for them.


Yeah I've been very hard on JW for good reason but today was memorable in the best way.

Agree. I don't know anymore. This series is over for a long time if not forever. Tie the game and keep it going? I don't know.

Sorry guys. Wilcox is an idiot. The decision was bad and blowing the timeout even worse. Or the other way around.

Pawlawski bashing refs for $c holding receivers on 2 pt conversion


Maybe if Cal did less crying about the outcome of single plays, and more execution of plays, we wouldn't be in the ACC pretending it is a good place to be.

The Jet just scored a TD on a screen. He is great outside, but too small to keep running inside.

50-50 with less than a minute left is the right call.

Another close loss. Same as always.
We can say this or that. But the result is always the same!!

It's only the game deciding play, so yeah don't call the obvious penalty.

I don't view this as any sort of moral victory. This was a game that we should have won, against a ranked team, and what could have vaulted us into real contention for a bowl game.

Oh, wait.
You're the guy who after we lost in OT you're lamenting that we could have just ended it in regulation.

But now you'll tell me how that's not so.

Whatever. Take the victory when you've got it.
It would have been glorious. Be thankful.

Yes!
It's fine.

How did we get 49 on USC??


Because they have a ****ty Defense.
Theyve been bad ALL season.
Duh.

I'm sure this has been mentioned but I have to say it. When those protestors delayed the game - it meant both bands couldn't do pregame shows. But that didn't stop SC's band. Constantly playing tribute to Troy. I'm sure they were laughing hard at us. It's so frustrating

No!

When was the last time USC yielded 49 points?

USC was given this game even though we tried to give it to them. They literally held the TE the entire time on that playaction 2pt conversion. Fk the pac-12

We stopped them in the red zone enough to believe we have a shot at a TD vs FG.

To be clear, for me this is the best part of sports. The pretending we have any idea what the outcome would be, but for one mistake or changed play call.

TBH, I am pretty sure we have a similar probability of hitting the PAT as the 2pt try. So for me it's just nice to say could'a would'a should'a

51-50 or 50-50, they still have to drive and score a FG with less than a minute left.

Youre wrong about the call, it was a mistake.

Honestly, at this point it's better if Wilcox doesn't win the 50/50 games and convince the AD to extend him again.

The only thing I didn't like was Wilcox calling timeout before running the 2 point conversion. That made zero sense. Not only did it give SC'a defense a chance to set up, but it also took away a valuable timeout in the case of a failed attempt.

A "Bowl Week" game is better at just about every level than "No Bowl Game."

Losing by 1 to SC might get him another year. Winning by 1 would have got him 4 more. Haha
