The California Golden Bears (2-3, 1-1 ACC) and Wake Forest Demon Deacons (4-1, 2-1 ACC) will compete in a Saturday evening game, the Atlantic Coast Conference and Cal Athletics announced Monday morning.
Cal v. Wake Forest will kick off on Saturday, Oct. 17 at 7:30 p.m. Pacific at Databricks Field at California Memorial Stadium in Berkeley, Calif.
ESPN is the broadcast network for the football game. Cal v. Wake Forest will air on ESPN or ESPN2, with the actual network finalized after this weekend’s games.
The Wake Forest Demon Deacons will travel to Strawberry Canyon for the first time in program history. The two teams have only met once previously in Cal’s inaugural season in the Atlantic Coast Conference, a 46-36, victory in Wake Forest, N.C., in 2024.
OK. Out of pure hardheaded and perverse stubbornness I plan to attend this game. Same for the Virginia Tech day game. I paid up front and I am going. Unfortunately, no one in my family or circle of friends will go with me to anymore Cal football games, day or night this season or maybe ever according to one cowardly bastard.
Too many night games!! Terrible effect on attendance!
