Students can't get in. Scanners are broken and nobody is empowered to make an executive decision to just let everyone in.

Oh crap!
How did that get resolved?

On the INT, the replay showed Loney ready to block the QB during the return. He could have hit him, but showed nice restraint.

---

Cal Smart.
Miss Ol should have been flagged for targeting, crown of helmet to Bowers' chin. That's an ejection, buddy!

Nice they scored a TD off a turnover....Let's hope that's a trend

Prescient.
Pick 6!

Wow an arm hold and a jersey hold and no call.

Both of those really frustrated me!! Back to back pass interference!!

I bet if we were wearing the birght gold shirts that PI would have been called, harder to see the dark navy shirt getting pulled

That's a good point, actually!

Here is what we know.

This coaching staff can make halftime adjustments. We see the difference in the 3rd and 4th quarter.
This defense believes they can change the course of a game. 3 INTs with one returned for a pick 6.
Ross Bowers is one tough kid. Takes it on the chin and drops a dime to the open receiver.

This team can play in any conditions.
Playing early in the morning on the East Coast.
Playing close games.
Playing from behind.
Playing late at night.
Playing tight scoring games.
Playing anywhere, anyone, and any time.

I love this team thus far. They come to play and they will wear you down. Gone are the days of losing 55-52.

I welcome the days when we win 27-16 and defense wins the day.
Mississippi was shut out for the final 43 minutes of the game.

The tale of the tape:
Cal had more plays from scrimmage and time of possession.

Bowers is one tough dude. That's two should have been targeting hits in three weeks, plus he stood in there on about 6 different occasions and delivered strikes just before getting pummeled. We need to protect him better, but the guy is tough, and also great at
Finding the open man in blitz situations. I'm proud to have him as a bear.

Apparently Bowers has Homer Simpson's cranium

Good game , you won. Too bad some of the posters here are jerks. But surprisingly most of you weren't. I certainly expected most of you people to be less than gracious.

---

Eh. Cal and Ole Miss have no history and you are guests who made the trek across the country to play us. Both teams have a lot to improve on.

---

We'll see them next year in Oxford. Hope they will be at least as gracious as Opel GT was.

---

2 years

---

The great thing about a 2-year wait is that there will be less motivation for revenge, and a lot of their players from last night's game will be gone.

---

another great thing is we don't have to face Patterson again.

Halftime adjustments?

supposed to be one of the strengths of this staff, looking fwd to seeing what they come up with

---

In other words, you weren't one of the many who threw the baby out at halftime? Good for you your reasonability paid off!

From a tweet in your post: "Cal has lesser athletes that have grit."

That's one heck of a compliment!!!
