Done. 4:17 left on the clock. I'm very disappointed in my performance.

Best part is that three of these games are the same damn bowl under different names. Love those corporate sponsorships!

I didn't like Garden State the first time I watched it either!

43/48 and oh so many memories from 96 on.

I missed Washington & Jefferson, Northwestern, Temple and Wyoming and the Garden State Bowl

40/48 not bad. Got all of them in the 2000s and I guessed some of the 90s. Was also helped by getting most of the super early ones (it helped that they were all the old bowls). Helped by guessing teams from a specific conference lol.

Huh, so that is a school that plays football??

45/48 which is quite good considering I have never really studied the Rose Bowls of the 20s and 30s. Nailed everything from the modern era.

D’oh, how could I forget the gentlemen’s nil-nil tie against William and Jefferson???

42/48 I hang my head in shame.

I got 100% finishing with 2:09 to spare, the only one I had to think about was the bowl game against Virginia Tech in '03. Cal football history is kind of my thing, plus I've been around a looooooonnnng time.

I didn't do too well. The fog of history.

47/48. I needed to remember where we stole the Cal drinking song from for one of the answers .. . and just resorted to listing Big 10 teams for two more answers that I didn't know

For opponent 23 - I really did have a good time.
