That seems kind of ridiculous, given our recent performances. This game feels like more of a toss-up, with both head coaches having major problems with their programs..

Our problems are small potatoes compared to what is happening in Chapel Hill and everybody and their mother will be tuning in a week from tonight expecting us to stomp the hell out of the Heels

I need this to stick above 10 so I can hedge toward my 5.5 total win wager, and my emotions.

This is an insanely high line.

It will be interesting to see which way the line moves closer to game time.

The line isn't that high when you consider that we have veteran coach JUSTIN WILCOX and they have some what's-his-name guy who has only coached a few college games in his entire life.

Yes, but only one of those coaches has had any success as a head coach, and it's not the Cal head coach.

This is true. There will be lots of curiosity viewers. We better not disappoint.

For all the wrong reasons. Gawd, we'd better destroy those clowns...

Their dysfunction has made much bigger headlines than ours.

I wouldn't touch that line in either direction. UNC is a train wreck and they could just flat out not show up and we demolish them. Or they could show up and play decently and we lose. I could see either team saying "eff it" and come out fired up and I could see either team caving. Or I could see Cheez Its.

If Wilcox looks disengaged on the sideline again, we aren't getting to 12.5 unless UNC tanks it (which they very well might).

And it's on late Friday night when no other game is on. Expect a pretty big number.

The reason I've had this game circled has changed no less than 3 times since preseason. Initially it was to watch us play against the HoF coaching legend, then as the season unfolded it was changed to the idea that we might actually win the game too, and now finally I'm just going to rubberneck the head on collision of two dysfunctional "programs." I think UNC covers but hoping we win. But I thought same about the Aztec line, god forbid the same thing happens.

It'll compete with the ending of the NLCS game between the Brewers and the Dodgers for the first hour or so. After that, people will probably tune in to the Cal game since there's really nothing else on TV (sports-wise).

All we need to know is if North Carolina has a mobile QB. If so, we're screwed right?

UNC is arguably the worst 2 win team in the country, but likewise we may also be the worst 4 win team in the country...

Moveable objects meets a stoppable force tonight.

We have been trained on what to expect from the Wilcox regime: a completely inexplicable loss to a team that we should crush. That's what I expect for tonight until further notice.

Other way around …. Lowering the spread makes it so there will be more action on the favorite. Bettors are taking the points (and UNC) so they lower the points to get more action on Cal
