Nice work Chistopher, I always learn something from your previews. I don't hate Stanford really, I just want the Cal football team to beat the Stanford football team by 21 points or more this Saturday rain or shine. Is that too much to ask for? I think not. Go Bears! Let's wrap up the home game season on a positive note.

I really hope you don't end up eating crow after such an aggressive post. Sure Stanford *only* beat Syracuse and Louisville. Meanwhile we've beaten 3-7 SDSU, 4-6 Auburn, 4-6 Oregon State, and 4-6 Wake Forest

I remember booing him the whole time. That was peak popularity Tiger, he was totally rattled as he had probably never been booed before.

Yes they did. Cal fans hated Tiger Woods before it was cool.

I looked it up. His car crash that started it all was 6 days after the game

Cal did this.

Stanford offense looks good enough to convert 4th downs and score multiple touchdowns in the 4th quarter.
