In my imagination the Bears are beating the Trojans by ten points tonight.

And 21 point underdog to USC seems too low. I am really surprised the spread isn’t 30.

This is one of those games where you hope for an early field goal, then take a picture of the scoreboard showing Cal in the lead.

Agree about playing Millner - should have a quick hook for Plummer, maybe the first time he makes a bad read and throws an impossible long pass. That would have been the third play against Oregon.

Very happy for Sonny Dykes, watching his TCU team battle to stay undefeated at 9-0 this morning. Great guy, he deserves the success. His new DC and the 3-3-5 has been just enough to let that offense shine.

Basically a draw so far....fun to see Dykes offense, against TDR's defense.

The cal offense can be non existent at times, for entire games. I see USC dominating this game up front.It could get very ugly fast.Let’s hope not bears fan’s. The chants of Kai Milner the freshman QB will be ringing out loud in Bear territory if you saw him last week, wow. He brought hope to the program’s future. Let’s hope Wilcox saw the same thing and at least gives the kid a chance. We all seen what Plummer does, which is not a lot.

He's the 10th or 11th rated QB in the Pac-12 hence a poor use of the transfer portal. He was riding the pine at Purdue so why did Musgrave/Wilcox take a flyer on him as if he was a good QB. "Giving us the best chance to win" rings hollow at this point.

Plummer is rated 9th, Williams is 4th. I suggest they'd be in the other's spot if they were to switch teams.

I expect the margin to be 32 points in favor of SC, even if we stay close for one quarter

OSU played pretty well, but not well enough to defeat Washington last night.

That’s why you take the points early. OSU entered the UW red zone twice and instead of kicking FGs, they went for it both times on 4th down and couldn’t convert. I am all about being aggressive but early in the game it is always better to take the points because you will probably need them in the 4th quarter.

The frosh running back Martinez for OSU looks real good, almost as good as Ott.
