With a 14–3 California lead late in the second quarter, I think there was some excitement in Bear Territory. After a 14–0 run by Oregon and we’re suddenly deflated and trailing 17–14.
Cal will receive the ball to start the second half.
There we go. The Ducks got us last year, we got them back this year. Still annoyed with the Beavs, who've beaten us twice in a row. We'll get them next year.
It's just the feeling of "playing not to lose" that seems to pervade every game of his tenure where he get a lead. Ha, it almost has be thinking sometimes, what's even the point? To notch the win column and one day look back and say, we had this many wins?
Yeah, I wish we were like even just calling running plays instead of delayed kneels. Anything else. But Wilcox is REALLY good at taking a ton of time off the clock.
Those delay kneels and clever little time draining techniques has the feel of a boxer (like say, Floyd Mayweather Jr, but I wont go that far) running around/away in the final minute to not engage with a fighter who's only chance to win is with a miracle KO... met with boos from the crowd. But I get it.

Yeah for sure. Maybe this game was different and Oregon didnt help their selves, but def in previous games we could have won comfortably if we kept the foot on the gas, but it turns into a desperate finish to hang on to the win. For the sake of getting a win. Since that's the goal of the game.
They should not allow zoom commentary...worse than worthless
Now so regret not betting whoever said we lose by 20...ha, take that old blue! Go Bears!
That was me. GLadly eat crow/duck. We kept them scoreless in second half!
INSTAREACTION AND GRADE THE GAME

I'll take the win. But man, is Wilcox a boring coach!
Defense in 4th quarter was fun to watch!
True dat
I dunno that was way more interesting than it should have been

No I agree with you, I’m being sarcastic that the uninspiring call playing led to that being more interesting than it should have been.

Turtle is going to turtle.
There's safety in the shell
So says Moscow Mitch.
Yeah, but thanks to Oregon.
Bears up, ducks down! Wish it were the ax but I’ll take it.
Suck it Ducks!!! We tried to give you the game and you still couldnt win!!! This Defense stood tall!
Refs helped too though
New Glasses Ref ❤️
Announcers aside, the penalties seemed legit by and large.
I think that 3rd down ball position was favorable to us
Go bears!
This goes in the W column. Nobody mind the game film.
Ok I'm happy
OMG I can’t believe it
Bears win!
I love the insults to the PAC 12 refs
Fleming lol
The only way this game can end is on a purposeful safety
Run to end zone take a safety?
We should’ve been trying to get a 1st
Way to be a hero Thibodeaux!
We’re going to have to punt if we can run 6 seconds off the clock here
They can take a safety if needed to run out the clock.
Can’t
Wilcox is all “I totally knew that would happen”
Deng nabbed it!
So we were completely ready to give the game to Oregon, and it’s Oregon for the win... for Cal?
What can Deng do for you?!?!
Saved by turnovers, none by our offense this week iirc
Offense was bad. Brutal to watch and wasted so many turnovers and opportunities to score more points.
#takers
Deng with the redemption!
OH THANK JEEBUS!!!
"Ding"
2nd forced fumble for Deng
Hell yes
What a huge second half from the defense.
GAME BABY
DENG
Takers¡!!!!
No way is that overturned
SAVE US NEW GLASSES REF
Our offense is somehow terrible. Just brutal.
Takers!!!!!
Well I’m pooping
Poop some more!
Let’s go!
Good old “prevent
I have yet to see any evidence that Musgrave is good at his job.
Doooooooooooom
That was a good game. Bears came within 2 minutes of winning.
Shit
Wilcox is trying to lose
Yep, this is some terrible end of 1st and 2nd half coaching.
Trying to improve our draft position?
Tank 4 Trevor
Oh God here we go....Doom....
Too much pressure on the defense. Bad coaching.
It is crap but I agree not to trust the special teams
Shouldve had Dancy in that drive
Arrrrrrrgh
What a terrible sequence of play calling there. Garber’s best asset is his running. Gotta give him some options.
