My preseason expectation was 7.5 wins, if Cal loses, this season will officially be a disappointment, as I don't see Cal winning @SMU.

Nohl Williams was trash today

At this rate we might not make a bowl game

I don't think we can isolate any one individual. Everyone was unprepared for this game.

Yup. That's the drive that was needed against Miami, NC State, Pitt, etc. Their players made the plays.

Didn't say others weren't trash either. They all looked -10 and thought they'd slide through with a win. They got smacked .

Our defenders coaches have been a step too slow the whole game.
FTFY.


Players have to make plays. Ours have not done that today. They can't hide behind the coaches just because some fans think everything is the coaches' fault.
Thanks coach Wilcox.

I knew there must be a Wilcox defender here somewhere. You'd fit right in on this coaching staff, their #1 philosophy is "blame the players".

I'm pretty sure Wilcox' gonna say that word for word in his post game.

I know the defense were put in a bad spot early with the turnovers, but they have been bad all day. Two punts, one three and out.

And those punts only happened because Syracuse got penalties.

Stanford is hanging with a ranked Louisville team.

We have many season where team underachieved under Wilcox. Have we had one season of overachieving?

Coming home favored and with a chance to clinch a bowl game and we come out flat on both sides of the ball. This has also happened way too often under Wilcox. It's on him, his roster, his personality. Just not good enough.

Sure but we also were up 35-10 on the #9 team in the country. We both still suck

This loss guarantees another season without a winning conference record.

You can argue for one of his first three seasons. After that, no.

I don't necessarily mind, as its up to the opposition to stop them, but I would have just run the clock some more.

I know we're unfamiliar with this, but this is how you close games.

You don't have to just run run run three times.

Watching Mike Tyson wander around in his fight thong was more enjoyable than watching this game.

what is with hunter tripping on two consecutive plays?

Why was the clock running after that first down? Player went out of bounds

Cal football is doing everything they can to guarantee they don't get another national TV broadcast.

No, no, no.. you're supposed to run the ball three times and punt to give the opponent as many chances as possible to make a comeback. The Wilcox conservative finger's crossed football strategy. You can use it in any game! Just get a tiny lead and then EXECUTE THE PLAN.

Hell of a thing when a broadcaster out of the business for the last four years is rightly second-guessing our coaching.

"How in the world is Cal huddling up?"

Exactly

Last offseason he fixed the poor ball security.

This offseason gotta learn how to throw it away

Silver lining; cost of Mendoza just went down
