Big difference between a 6-win bowl and a 7-win bowl, and a bigger difference still with an 8-win bowl. Let's use this momentum and slaughter 'furd next week.


Spirits will be very high for this BG.

November is fun again. Go Bears!!!

One play.
One yard!

Okay. Sorry, 2.5 yards!!




Thanks, man.
I was on radio!
First time seeing it.

Sorry I wasn't able to see, did Crosby return after he was banged up? Any update on his injury?

Do you know why Cal won today?

Because the calendar changed to November. If this game were in October, Cal would have lost.


Wha5 month did we play Virginia in?

Clearly the time change and the hangover from Halloween interfered with the typical Cal patterns.

Bears actually won this game. Outplayed Louisville and one of top defenses in the country. Oh my, what a bonanza!

Pawlawski was awed during the game for these throws.
This sounds like he was raving before the game.

Was reading the Louisville forum, they're saying "Hey we should have covered that Jesus guy, he only caught 17 passes....Oh look, there's number 18"

What happened to Golden One and the other poo poos. They didn't want to stick around for the post game victory celebration???


I'm here, enjoying the win. But one game doesn't save Wilcox after 9 years of suckiness.

That's pretty funny.
"That Jesus guy."

I can hear them now - "Jesus ****ing Christ!!!"


I'm tuning into Louisville postgame presser now.

Given our schedule, with a better coach this win easily puts us at 10-0, ranked and in sole possession of first place in the ACC. Last year and this year were set up for program changing dream seasons.

If he can ride this into a late-season winning streak then I will be happy to reevaluate. One game at a time.

I thought the best part was replacing the OL people who had not been doing the job with others who might produce better. Especially in this NIL era, you have to have that accountability.

Stanford and SMU at home will be easier than this one. Though not as easy as the 4 games he already lost to squander a historically easy schedule and program changing opportunity.

If you watch the replay of the final play of the game, De Jesus faked the defender out so badly that he practically fell over.

Hopefully Wilcox haters (well deserved hate) give credit for him not turtling up and going for the win

I'll be the first to acknowledge that! Wilcox showed some guts and went for the win when it would've been easier to go for the tie and 2OT. Way to go Wilcox!

Fantastic. But just begs the question where this play calling has been all year? So many wasted games.


The play calling has been pretty good. The execution may be the worst I have seen in college football. I don't know what you have been watching, but the offense is like 700 dropped passes now.

Hard to make the right call look right when no one on the team has sticky hands.

The play calling has been good enough all year that I wouldn't be surprised if one of the dozen open positions doesn't go to him.

San Diego state might be the playoff favorite for the g5 and UVA is still in contention for an ACC title. I don't consider those as awful loses. Va Tech there was no excuse for, (Duke is very weird and might win the ACC while losing to UConn

First game I saw DeJesus play, I was like, holy crap, that dude is fast, and good!

Them I went to the second game and a woman was wearing his jersey. I assume she was related. I gave her some cheer.

Now he sets the record.
Wow.

Definitely ACC player of the week. Maybe more.

Ooops. I my excitement I omitted the word At the start the sentence.
Good to make sure people know where we are suppose to go for the party!




Who else here remembers tapping into the Stanford PA system in 95ish:
"15 yard penalty against Stanford. Excessive Arrogance!"

And then two years later, tearing down their goalposts!
I could have my years mixed up, but that was hella fun!!


Let the invasion repeat itself!!

We had the #111 offense in the country in yards per play coming into this game despite having a phenomenal talent at QB and the easiest schedule in our modern history. If it is due to a lack of talent and execution, then I blame him for chasing off all our skill position coaches and players, just like he did at Auburn, and then continually playing his preferred slow starters who can't catch while faster guys ride the bench and don't even get a chance. The one exception is DeJesus, who has his drops too, but at least is fast and can get open. Problem is only his 5'5" height limits what we can do with him, especially in the Red Zone,but we keep dialing up the same underneath drag play and teams keep falling for it.

So he now has a games with 15 and 16 receptions. WOW

And the first time we all saw him at the Bowl game last year when he kicked our arse, we said, "holy crap, that dude is fast, and good!" only we were pissed.

Thank god he he transferred here

Of the guys who have started at WR most of the season, he is clearly the one guy Sagapolutele trusts to get open, more than likely hang onto the ball, and then get yards after the catch.

Imagine where we would be if we didn't get him after all our scholarship WRs left?

The other WRs need to step up because Stanfurd is going to bracket the hell out of him. My money is on Trond taking advantage and having a big game. Not sure where Jordan King disappeared to today, but I hope to god that he gets all of Hamper's reps going forward.

losing to a great sdsu team on the road is excusable. Losing 34-0 is not.

Adams is an even faster version of DeJesus (listed at 5'7" so probably 5'6" but an inch taller). Had a big play today then it seemed like he went right back to the bench? Don't know what happened to King, I thought he was finally listed as the starter? Maybe he got hurt?
