In 25+ years on the site I've never started a game thread before. Is there that little enthusiasm remaining? I must say that I am not as amped for today as I have been. Glad to see Ott starting though. Hoping he can at least have a few healthy weeks.

Thanks.

After last week, I was done. My heart couldn't take it....etc, etc, etc.

Yet......here I am.

GO BEARS!!!
If you believe in forever
Then life is just a one-night stand
If there's a rock and roll heaven
Well you know they've got a hell of a band

Ohio State just called for target that is NOT anywhere as egregious and clear as Miami dirty hit. Is NCAA protecting players or teams?

muting more than 300 handles, turnaround is fair play

The question mark in the thread title makes you sound like a Valley Girl.

What wrong with Valley Girl?


...was meant to convey: "am I really really starting my first game thread?"

Can't believe this game is going to be be on ESPN2 given how these teams have been playing

15 minutes to kickoff and the stadium is super empty.

Yeah, if we weren't getting the late night spot I thought this game would have gone to ACC Network for sure. SMU-Duke looks like a better matchup for one of the main channels.

But maybe ESPN just thinks OSU and Cal are better ratings performers? I dunno.

More people in the band than in the student section.

You can hear the band much better with no one in the stands

They got E40 and did not do any broader outreach to Oakland. Team performance and marketing re both to blame ... Again. Fans showed up at Miami. Now it is prove it or lose it

Leftover goodwill and good vibes from their Gameday at Berkeley.

Stadium and around it is dead. No one in Top Dog at 11. I know it's early but never seen that before.

Well the game cant be any worse than the Stanford wake game. Booooring and bad

If we manage to put together another epic loss, it would usher in the second coming of the Holmoecaust.

There is one good quality around these attendance nadirs, is that you look around the stadium and you know that you are in good company among the hardest core of Cal fans.

I'll tune into the game 2 mins late so I don't have to see the embarrassing attendance and cringe when they show the stadium from above. Hopefully they just show a lot of tight shots of Oski and the band members forced to be there.

OSU will probably have a decent contingent, this is a big game for them now, a lot better than their MWC slate.

This. Usually I have no connectivity during the game. Frickin' T-Mobile.
