Are we the best 5-4 team in the country? Will we be the best 6-4 team in the country come Saturday night?

USC may be better than we are and they're 4-5. They have 5 losses by a total of 19 points and wins over LSU and by 3 scores over Wisconsin and Rutgers. That said, we should be 7-2 with at worst a split from among FSU, the U, Pitt, and NC St.

If we made a few more Liam Johnson-type plays, Rug, boy howdy…could be 7-2 easy now…

Or 9-0...9 points separate us from 4 victories, 2 against ranked opponents.

I like to think so, but history has taught me, "Not so fast."

BTW- Makes us sound like SEC multi-loss teams. lol

I don't know about this spread. These teams seem pretty evenly matched. I think the game will come down to coaching decisions. Hope the OL does a good job, fingers crossed. Looking forward to the game, should be good football weather. Go Bears!

Problem with having a favorite team and commenting on a blog about it is you can't in good conscience exploit inefficiencies like Syracuse +270.

Cal's four FBS wins this year are against mediocre teams that won't be bowling. Baylor is 5-4 and has wins against bowl-bound TCU and Texas Tech. Cal has to beat somebody of note first. Saturday would be a good start.
