Very frustrating loss. We were just a few yards from a long field goal icing the win in regulation capping a spirited Cal comeback. If I were Wilcox I would not have deferred to start the overtime period. I guess he was gambling that our defense would continue its better play as we witnessed in the 2nd half. Namely, getting some pressure on Morris led to some inaccurate throws and 3 and outs. Overall I am encouraged by the Cal performance but not the outcome.

This is one of those games where I consider and in occasional seasons actually take a game or two off for a mental health break.

As much as I think we have the better team than UW.. If we played this game 100 times, I bet we'd only go 41-55-4.

The hit on Moore to cause the fumble was straight on his helmet, so brutal and awful, was hard to watch. Then of course ESPN replayed it umpteen times as the one notable highlight of the game. Gross
