WTF

Caught some of the post-game interview with Nando on the field getting emotional.

Shoutout to Daniel Lahl, whose 24-23 prediction was really close!

Though the comments about the FG kickers didn’t quite fit.

So Happy for Fernando and the seniors!

Seems like the Bears were hibernating for about 6 1/2 quarters. Thought they had thrown in the towel. Great to see them wake up and pull this one out. Go Bears!

Wilcox should donate part of his salary to Mendoza’s new LLC

The LA Bowl is ridiculous, but please let that be the destination.

One can hope that SMU rests their starters to prep for the playoffs like they do in the NFL.

Expand full comment

Zero chance

Expand full comment

No passer doing more with less protection than Mendoza.

Expand full comment

Showed me a ton on that last possession.

An all-time great drive.

Tip of the hat.

Expand full comment

I love bowling

Expand full comment

98 yd drive for the kill, love it! Man, you gotta love Mendoza’s passion.

Expand full comment

Legendary.

Expand full comment

Finally a close game that we actually WIN!

Expand full comment

It felt like an exorcism. I think that was part of the emotion Fernando was showing

Expand full comment

We are best 6-5 team!

Expand full comment

Although Nando said 6-6 in the post-game interview - haven't lost to SMU yet my dude!

Expand full comment

I have no faith in these coaches. But I will love and respect Fernando Mendoza forever. True baller.

Expand full comment

100%.

That drive made Nando a f-ing legend.

Expand full comment

Mendoza’s tough not to like.

Expand full comment

On the one hand this was a squeaker against a weak opponent, but on the other we basically dominated the last three quarters. Even Furd's 2nd half TD drive depended on a bunch of plays they barely made. Ultimately we executed down the stretch and they didn't.

Expand full comment

If you saw last week's Stanford win over top 20 Louisville, you wouldn't call them a "weak" opponent. I really thought they should be favored after watching both teams last Saturday

Expand full comment

What a rollercoaster. Classic cal heart attack.

Stadium announcer: if you are going to rush the field please wait one minute and take the stairs don’t jump over the wall…. LOL.

Expand full comment

My friends. It was an ugly win. We did not play a great game. But we earned this win. Big Game is just a different game.

Enjoy it.

Expand full comment

And feed frozen again

Expand full comment

You're 6-5 Nando, not 6-6!

Expand full comment

Nando in tears. Go Bears

Expand full comment

Mendoza crying for his team. Love it.

Expand full comment

Celebrate the win. Gripe about coaching later.

Expand full comment

for sure; that was fun (in the end)

Expand full comment

Absolutely.

6-6 with back to back bowls is nothing to gripe at.

Expand full comment

Uhh. We haven’t played with SMU yet.

Expand full comment

Lol Nando. Let it out.

CAL WINS THE 127th BIG GAME

Expand full comment

“There will be no extra point.”

Expand full comment

As much as Wilcox is flawed, you gotta give him credit for keeping the axe where it belongs.

Expand full comment

Awesome win.

Love the comeback

Expand full comment

haha, Stan's gotta be hatin' life right about now; they dominated today.

Expand full comment

I hope they get heartburn.

Expand full comment

YOU KNOW IT!

Expand full comment

FUCK YEAH!

YOU TELL THE STORY!

Being a Cal fan has more to do than with just about the athletics

Expand full comment

DON’T CARE CAL HAS THE AXE

Expand full comment

I say it every year, that axe staredown has 20 of the least intimidating people I've ever seen in my life

Expand full comment

When did they turn into dead eyed zombies. I don’t remember that in the 80’s.

Expand full comment

Yeah... no offense to them but someone has to be a little intimidating. They seem almost reassuring.

Expand full comment

Before, We go to crazy. If We win this game let's give the credit to the players. Wilcox had nothing to do it. He may be the HC The players deserve all the credit in hanging in and making the plays

Expand full comment

He did recruit the players; that's worth something

Expand full comment

Yes, He did recruited the players. But, you must admit that his game time play calling is not adequate as a HC. I would 75 to 90 percent of the fans on this thread would like to see him go.

Expand full comment

Boo hoo daniels

Expand full comment

Are you all feeling unburdened by what has been?

Expand full comment

GO BEARS

Expand full comment

Nevermind the victory knee, score the “f*** you” TD

Expand full comment

but with 3 hands on the football

Expand full comment

THIS

Expand full comment

Slow roll to a score. Leave no time on the clock.

Expand full comment

soooo...are we unfiring Wilcox now? 😂

Expand full comment

I'm past the "just win the Big Game" thing. California can win football games, lets make it happen more often

Expand full comment

remember we were favored by14. even if we win it's an awful performance

Expand full comment

No...cause Stanford is only slightly worse than us.

Expand full comment

Cal, yes. The court of public opinion, absolutely not lol

Expand full comment

temporarily for today, the usual business resumes tomorrow

Expand full comment

Hell no

Expand full comment

Thankfully, Furd is Furd.

Expand full comment

Well we held them to 21

Expand full comment

We have to end this with a score!

Expand full comment

Feed is shitty again

Expand full comment

oh, man...I can hardly believe what I'm seeing here!!

Expand full comment

Let’s end this with a rushing TD!

Expand full comment

they gotta go for it, right?

Expand full comment

Got em where we want em. 4 th and long 😬

Expand full comment

EXTEND WILCOX!!

Expand full comment

I was going to like that comment, but don't want knowlton to get the wrong idea

Expand full comment

6 more years, 6 more years!

Expand full comment

6 n 6!

Expand full comment

LOL

Expand full comment

Don't F this up Bears!!!! Please please please please

Stanford has just one TO remaining
