Mrs. Garrett was the bomb. How did she go from being the housekeeper on Different Strokes to higher up at a boarding school?

Sorry, guys.
Texas has great talent upfront. Texas DL and LBs will dominate Cal's OL and stymie the Cal offense.
Texas wins this one 37-10. Easy money if you're a bettor.
And I'm a Cal fan, btw.

Sometimes in life and in football you just reach a point where you get people doubting your talent, or will or character to the point it drives you into an emotional frenzy. I have listened to what has been said and written about this Texas team all week. So have the Longhorns. If they have a pulse that should be one pissed off, foaming at the mouth bunch that shows up tonight. An angry football team is dangerous. Cal should be sky high as well plus Goff should be the difference - unless Texas can bring consistent pressure. Vance Bedford is a pretty good DC. I think we are in for a treat of a game. Give me Texas 31-27 with a defensive and special teams score. And a few weeks ago NYC asked who I was pulling for. The pre game banter solidified it for me. Hook 'em.

Respect your decision 100%. Also, I enjoy the hell out of your posts. You're a good man.
Tomorrow we can resume our friendship, but for today, screw the Horns. Go Bears!

Explained before. Texan born and bred. Mom marries guy in Navy - we land in Oakland 1971-75. My bros and I took the bus to many Cal home games. Returned to Texas. Have followed Cal since. Undergrad degree Texas. So love both teams but Cal is 2. My middle brother by contrast went to Tech, but Cal is still his team. He flies back for say the SC or furd game occasionally. He will be seated next to me in full Cal garb tonite. He has been lurking here off and on for years. Other bro played baseball at TCU. He is 100% purple and annually voted the human being who most closely resembles a timber wolf.

I've seen too many Cal games to be overly confident in a game like this...it actually reminds me a lot of the Maryland game a few years ago.
1. It was extremely hot
2. Maryland was struggling (I think they might have even lost to an FCS school the week before).
3. Cal playing well and favored on the road
4. Next thing you know, Jahvid is puking on the field.

I'm curious Paul, if what you say is true, how come their opponents are converting such a high percentage of 3rd downs. I'm still a bit worried about this game, but Cal's offense is light years ahead of Texas' last 2 opponents and their 3rd down conversions were alarming.....

CF2, I'm not really sure if Paul is for real. I mean, predicting Texas to win -- totally fine, that's not irrational. Cal scoring only 10. Please.

It's OK for we fans to be overconfident, we just don't need our players overconfident. I think the Texas contingent on the team will keep them chill. This is sure one of our big games for us fans in a long, long time. Looking forward to it, but have more confidence than maybe I should be a Cal fan for so long------Cal by 17, and maybe more. Statement game for the team and for Sonny. Wish them both well today.
