Take the over. Were finishing in the top half of the conference and in contention for the pac-12 north. Well lose out by a game or two. That sets ourselves up for higher expectations in 2023.
Oregon chokes in Big games, even losing to Cal in 2020 and almost losing to Cal in 2021.
Oregon State will probably fall back to earth a bit.
Stanford has a dearth of talent and/or Shaw has lost his mojo. I don't know why they are ranked above Cal.
UCLA: We'll see if Chip can sustain the progress.
I would put Cal sixth on the basis of our defense, which is supposed to be amongst the best units in the conference. If our offense can be average we'll win 7+ games.
The word is out on Wilcox and his brutal offense. Until he starts putting a competent and consistent offense on the field, the media is going to view Cal with skepticism. And rightly so.

9th in the conference? More like 9th in the nation.
I disagree with the forecast.
USC has a lot to prove after years of mediocrity.

Seeing Cal at 9th makes me feel like Bugs Bunny when he found out that the bounty for rabbits was only two cents.
"You'll be hearing from me!"
So much depends
On the quarterback
Glistening with rainwater
Beside the white chickens

Chalkboard material!!!!!
(updated: whiteboard w flavored pens material!!!)
We need to earn the respect on the field. First off, a good showing at Notre Dame to prove national relevance.
Then, take care of business at Memorial with UW, Oregon, Stanford and UCLA coming to town.
Go Bears!
