Thanks for this. This is a big can of what the hell. Who will show up and all that. On paper this game is...well, who cares. We have often played this game where one time was a massive underdog, and we've played it when the teams had relative parity. This year, they have parity in being 0-2 and looking bad doing it, and yet neither team is quite as bad as that indicates. So, here we go. Go? Go Bears!
I think they'll be tougher than they seem. They got beat up by Oregon, but didn't have their starting quarterback and Oregon is Oregon. They hung tight with a surging Colorado. And they've had an extra week of rest for their bodies. As much as I want a Cal win, I don't think I see it happening.
It's our first home game! Less transportation hassles to deal with, especially this year.
ICYMI, a plug for our guys talking to their guys:

Wilcox says Cal will "pipe-in" crowd noise.
I give ‘Furd a slight edge in this one since they have experience playing in an empty stadium.... 🤔
Hopefully you cook turkey better than you cook Cardinal cuz they just got burned.
