But not that happy about how we were so conservative at the end. It was like Arizona all over again.


We threw on 3rd down instead of running 40 seconds off the clock. We weren't conservative enough for me.

Offense needs to be able to get a first down or two to ice the game. not a fan of conservative runs on 1st & 2nd and then throwing downfield on third. Pass earlier if we're gonna, otherwise run three times and burn maximum clock.

If Jared didn't get hurt, we would have iced the game and scored 55 or 59 pts.

Nah. I think our offensive play calling just need a to stay aggressive even with a lead. And our defense is better than last year. It's not great but we did stop them all 3rd quarter.

hey paul, remember you said Cal would only score 10 because their DL would slaughter us?

Depending on Goff's injury, you may be right.
He gutted out the ending, but he may need time to get back to 100%.
Cal did not score again after he got hurt.

Well if it's like Arizona but we get the W, then we've improved.

We should have won by a lot more. When Kaufman went away from his style D and went BBDB, we just weren't good. And more concerning when Goff started limping our offense went limp. If he's okay, we'll be okay. If not, we're dead.

Go Bears!!

Seriously....Sonny got too conservative on the other drives, then got risky on the pass play that failed and stopped the clock....totally opposite of what he should have done IMO. We could have sealed this game away with about 4 minutes to go if Sonny hadn't reverted to the JT playbook the series before the dropped pass one.

No, we can beat any team on our schedule, if Goff stays healthy, we have the best O in the P12.

Btw, I'm so excited for this win. You can downplay it all you want..but going into Austin to beat Texas is fking gratifying...the fact that their hearts are ripped out makes it special. SUFFER WHORNS!

+1. Though honestly Anderson was WIDE open and just dropped it.

and for the haters on Defense - we just watched a GREAT young QB. Now there was some horrid pass coverage in the first half but a bunch of the second half stuff reflected a very freakishly good runner

Cal gave up 650 yards...and Texas isn't good on offense.

Sonny and crew will learn from their errors down the stretch in this one.

And Austin is now Bear Territory.

There are many athletic QBs in the Pac-12 who, along with their coaches, will study this game film.

I'm happy we won but I'm certainly not gloating....WE gave up a fuckin' 21 point lead. That is so messed up we have to rely on a missed extra point to win


How many times have we done that and lost, how many times has an int or a missed kick ruined our day. I'll take the win. A win is a win is a win.

Stephen Anderson doesn't drop taut pass 9 out of 10 we deserved the win

That was the right call, they were expecting the run, play action fooled them. Anderson was wide open, just bobble and lost the ball, simple as that. Should have never been that close.

i think it bears repeating, so i'll say it again:

Cal's defense isn't that good yet, but we HAVE TO win the turnover margin (we have have for the 1st 2 games). tonight we were 0 +/-. those 2 we have up were at least worth 10 points.

with how much we average in Points Per Possession, giving the ball up is KILLER for us.

The first quarter was terrible, but our defense looked good for the better part of the last 3 quarters. This time, however, the defense was terrible: poor secondary coverage, poor tackling.



Embarrassing. The defensive coaching staff should walk back to Berkeley. This was pathetic. (And Franklin got far too conservative on the last two offensive series.)

Wrong. Throughout that game SDSU QBs often had 4-5 seconds to throw and often Cal defenders were not within 5 yards of the receivers. The SDSU QBs were incompetent. Tonight played out as predicted on D end.

The pass play was the right call. Anderson catches a ball he normally catches 99/100 and the game is over.

We hung 45 points (should have been more) on TX. And Texas is good on defense.

And yes, Texas offense was good - their QB is very exciting and we were not prepared.

We have a good football team! Enjoy the win!

Go Bears!!

I think a bit over the top but I am very impressed with how good a runner he is. Great step off the cut.
