The conclusion says it all: "Hoping Cal finds a way to bounce back this week, but I’m not particularly hopeful."

Not only does it sum up how a lot of us feel about this game but also the last 8+ years. Now we just have a rational sense of doom that sucks the joy out of watching any game.

But of course I’ll be watching, cheering and hoping for the best because I’m a Fool for Cal.

Pretty sure it’s 18 years….or all but just a few of the 50 years I’ve been a Cal fan, I’m afraid.

Just when you dare to hope, an SDSU game happens. Or a high ankle sprain happens to your QB, or your star player steps an inch out of bounds in the game that would have made the difference, or the coach doesn’t run up the score against an FCS team when that might have swayed the committee voters, or the receiver slips in USC’s end zone and the ball goes just over his open hands…. Sigh.

I had to take this last week off…for my personal preservation. But I too will be watching and cheering!!!! Go Bears!!!!!

I get that Daniel, I really do. And yet, at the same time a bunch of BC fans are of the same opinion about their team. Who the heck knows what these two teams will do tomorrow. I just know I am weary of the erratic play and weird losses every darn year. Go Bears!

> There’s no polite way to put this, but Boston College has looked absolutely awful running the ball this year. Boston College currently averages 61.5 rush yards per game, putting them at 3rd last in the FBS.

250 yard rushing day by BC coming up

Great job on getting us ready for this week's game Christopher. I am sure the QB and receivers are very good. But I also think the high passing stats are maybe just a bit inflated due the Fordham game results. Even so, our DB's will be tested for sure. Go Bears!

Get ready to get BLITZ BLITZ BLITZ! Lots of pressure is coming to OL and JKS, I hope they can pick up the blitz packages and make them pay the price for blitzing. Mims and the rest of the TE's and rb's should have a great game if they are blitzing.

mcCollough is out with injury

So is Isaiah Crosby. This means Cal is without two of its best defenders. Brace yourselves.

TL;DR: bears are probably going to get their asses kicked.

I am predicting a big turnaround this week that's the mirror image of the SDSU game. Go Bears!

A blowout loss to BC and Wilcox seat should be SCORCHING hot.

I wouldn’t be surprised if we can’t stop their allegedly bad run game
