Do we still have a W4C discount on those shirts? You can buy in bulk like it was Costco mac and cheese! (I like the Band one because it also insults Furd.)
And 2009 was indeed special. How often do you get to pick off Andrew Luck to win and boo Tiger Woods at halftime (days before things went sideways for him)?
Mike Mohamed's interception of Andrew Luck will definitely have to be acknowledge. And I think we would be remiss to not put up Chase Garbers winning the Big Game on his back in 2019 after a decade of futility, pain, and suffering
What great news Jeff! Great work dude and happy the Cal community could help. We are at our best when the suffering of a person concerns us even when we don't know them.
As for Big Game stories: I think immediately of Shane Vereen heroics. I don't recall the year but he carried like 30 times and his post game interview is classic. Also, Garbers running in for the TD to ice the game. Also, Mike Mohammed intercepting Andrew Luck to ice the game. Andrew Luck face palm is a classic Big Game moment. There are countless stories.
Thank you for doing this Jeff and continuing to teach the youngins about the glories of fireball and dark Oski!

I know a thing or two about futility, pain, and suffering in rivalry games ...
That's so cool!
I would include the whole set of thefts between the two schools before the Axe was codified as a trophy. It's very whacky in a Benny Hill hijinks way:

I love this!

2009 was both Vereen and MikeyMo (and Tiger Woods!). And my birthday. Best birthday present ever.
