In all three games this season, Cal has trailed at halftime. And yet the Bears find themselves a perfect 3-0 heading into Pac-12 play.

Cal rallied past Ole Miss 27-16 Saturday night in front of 37,125 at Memorial Stadium.

The Bears outscored the Rebels 20-0 after the break to improve their second half point differential to 57-13 for the season.

Cameron Goode sealed the victory with a pick six late in the fourth quarter, as Cal won the turnover battle for the third straight game.

Devante Downs also had a massive game, recording 14 tackles, including three for loss, two sacks, and an interception.

Raymond Davison III, Alex Funches, and Hamilton Anoai'i also recorded sacks, and Jaylinn Hawkins had an interception.

On offense, Ross Bowers finished 24-47 for 236 yards, a touchdown, and two interceptions. Patrick Laird rushed for 78 yards on 22 carries. Vic Enwere carried 13 times for 75 yards.

Kanawai Noa led the Bears with six receptions for 81 yards, both career highs. Vic Wharton III added five catches for 57 yards and a score.

Stay tuned for postgame reaction from head coach Justin Wilcox and the players.

Yes. Espn is fine. Just not Cal competitors (Rivals, 247, or Scout). Not sure about goldenblogs.

That was one of the more enjoyable games I've ever been to, even better than some of the early Tedford era games.

Once Zach Follett grabbed the mic in front of the student section, the D was unbreakable. I am so damn happy with the way this team played-even with some of the bad play calling (which will get fixed).. It's a new era Bear fans. Enjoy it!

per ap (as published on espn.com),
"The Golden Bears withstood two long TD passes by Rebels quarterback Shea Patterson but didn't allow a score over the final 43 minutes to end the nonconference season undefeated."

How can we be the stronger/tougher team without t-shirts telling us that?
