Thanks as always for the analysis. I have to say the stats make this game seem much better than what I felt while actually watching it. After seeing Cal play what I judged to be mediocre football against a weak team, I now have a feeling that I can only describe as impending doom going into the next 5 games, 3 of which (UVA, Louisville and SMU) are likely big L’s and the other two (VT and Stanford) lousy teams that make for toss up odds of winning. One can hope for a 6-6 season but 5-7 seems very much in the mix.
Am thinking 7-5. These dirt clod rock fight games are getting on my nerves. The game started great and ended great. The middle, not so good. We won, so OK, move on to Virginia Tech. More of the same? Probably so.
Berkelium's happy bear in the woods looks like he is enjoying the win way more than most Old Blue bears. I think he has it right.

Significant improvement in Pass Protection scores from Duke to NC. Watching the game, the OL pass pro seemed much tighter.
I really appreciate these analyses. Keep up the good work Berkelium.
