Cal couldn't run the ball, which can be traced to the O-line mostly, but UCLA ran for over 350 yards. That will win virtually any and every game.
If you are a first rate lineman (either side, hs grad or tranfer), you can walk into Berkeley ad be handed a starting job for the extent of your eligibility.
Tired of losing seasons. Why did it take so long to fire Musgrave? Why is mediocrity acceptable? Why is our play so inconsistent (coaching?)? Lot of heart in the players. Feels like we are close. But why can’t we recruit (local kid Luke Duncan would rather be #3 at UCLA than come here)?
One Bay Area scribe notably said UCLA's season was over after last week, and they had nothing to play for. And reportedly, Cal's season has been over for some time now. It did not look at all like either assessment was accurate. Very enjoyable game that someone had to lose. Having Charbonet I will note is definitely preferable to not having Charbonet.
Tough way to end the season but we competed hard in this game. Ended up just being another one score loss. I hope the OC hire is successful. The weird thing is that sans Musgrave the Bears receivers are starting to block so that even the WR screen became a legit play against UCLA!!!
We really need Troy T or even Tedford..:). At least we know OL wasnt the problem.. I'm leaning KM to take a look at qb. It's been six years Wilcox and not even a low level bowl. Fu##!
The "not prevent anything" D, in the last 58 seconds of the half was a good example of why Wilcox has to go. We should have just lined up our team along the hash marks, 50 or so on each side, and watch UCLA score.
I wish we could get rid of Wilcox, he just isn’t a very good HC. His ceiling is a P5 DC or a G5 HC. That being said, with the extension he has two more season to try to right the ship. He needs to hit home runs with his OC and OL coaching hires. He needs to hit the portal hard for OL, DL, and OLB.
Year 6 and this program has fully regressed in coaching, recruiting, and defense. Offense is the same old problem unit we have come to expect.
Like Fox, a loser HC doesn’t just change with more time and opportunity.
Been a pleasure everyone. Let's do it again next year.
Tough season but we kept the Axe. I’ll miss watching 32 patrol the deep half.
Now transfer portal, stay the hell away from our dudes but bless us with linemen.

We beat Furd! In a comeback. In the fourth quarter. We beat a Furd.
Other than that the season was a big disappointment. The Bearcast is a great place to appreciate that we are not out of our minds.
At this point, the football team may well wind up with more wins than the men's basketball team.

Hard to be optimistic with Wilcox at helm but I hope he hits a home run on the next hires, hits the portal hard, and starts recruiting hard.
I’m rooting for SC to make the CFB playoffs, we need that money to help with the Fox buyout.
I did enjoy my time at the games this year…as I do every year! Onward…Go Bears!

Isn't defense his strong point?
Another let down of a season.

Dan Lanning doesn’t appear to be working out up in Oregon, perhaps they should fire him and bring Wilcox home.
