On the bright side JKS is playing well. He's gonna be amazing at $C next year.

Only if Jayden Maiava leaves.

We need JKS just making quick throws. If we start with JKS under center and another slow developing tun play with a DB as RB….

I wonder who has a better teaching pro, Orinda Country Club or Claremont Country Club?

The Michigan v. Indiana game is a good one... if you actually like College Football.

At the end of Q3.

I hesitate to complain about officiating because they are in no way related to us losing right now...

But he was clearly down before breaking the plane.

Second week in a row Emory has been hurt on an uncalled penalty too...

Why do we have so many injured starters? Poor strength and conditioning or just bad luck?

Our defensive front is not going to be fixed this season but at least we don't play an offense like SMU (or Wake) the rest of the way

Three hours of game already after an early start and we still have a quarter left to go must violate some global standard of cruel and unusual punishment.

Why did the play calling get so conservative in the second half after being so creative in the 1st half? Especially when we were behind? By a lot.

It makes zero sense that Cal plays three road conference games in a row.

The cretins on the free board can't even imagine the level of 4D chess that is being played in elite corners right now.

Was going to go on a rant. Not even worth. Sadly, never thought I'd miss Wilcox. Time to go actually do something fun.

SMU going for it on 4th with the big lead when every Cal coach ever would have kicked.

Michigan about to stun Indiana.

That's what hiring a real coach can do.

Not really stunning. IU has an average quarterback.

Don't miss Wilcox, but this is bad too, yes, injuries but… What I really miss is having an offense. It has been 10 years of every year being one of the worst offenses on FBS

A lot of money was wasted putting this Cal team and coaching staff together. This is the worst loss in many seasons.

Oh, I guess that would make Tosh not a mongoloid.

Must have been one helluva pep talk Tosh gave the team at halftime. He is a great motivator.

We have zero running backs… might as well just throw for 10 to 15 minutes every single time there's no point of running
