Of course we lost at Arizona. Of course. We're 1-5 in Tuscon this century (only win was in 2004), and I'm not looking forward to whatever otherworldly forces cause us to lose in miserable fashion in 2022.

While this was an interesting simulation, I'm morbidly curious what would happen in a season featuring the worst Pac-12 teams of century. 2013 Cal vs. 2008 Washington would be a pillow fight for the ages.

Did anyone watch the Virtual Fan Fest on Facebook/CalAthletics/ yesterday at noon? It was pretty interesting to watch the coaches talk (particularly Toler and McClure, the new O-line coach). The video is one hour long and is now archived on youtube.

I could have sworn the Dennis Dixon teams were better - just because my Oregon friends seem to swear he was their best QB of the century (with some for Mariota) and nope - his teams were above average but not great. I guess he got hurt every year.

The 2009 Big Game was shown on Pac-12 network last night. Mikey Mo's interception of redshirt freshman Andrew Luck sealed it. Last victory in the BG until 2019. Sort of the end of the good/decent part of the Tedford era and downhill from there for the most part.
