Scoreline: Cal wins 24-10
You don't want to overlook any opponents, so Cal will have to stay focused and not take anything for granted. However, it seems likely that Cal will use this opportunity to let some starters heal up against a very young, very green SDSU team. I've watched their games, but I also can't forget how spooky they were to Cal in the past.

Scoreline: Cal wins 38-10
One of those rare, comfortable wins for a Wilcox team. Not even a post-Auburn letdown will jeopardize the Bears' chances against an SDSU team this bad.

Scoreline: Cal wins 55-10
SDSU is probably playing their toughest defense so far this season and a top 10 defense by most metrics. They also couldnt score on Oregon State last week as well. Momentum after a win like last week carries and we come out guns blazing to get right on offense after two weeks of good but not great offense. #drop50 returns to memorial for a weekend.

Scoreline: Cal wins 26-10
It would be easy for Cal to come out a little flat after their great win at Auburn. I anticipate that the first half will be a bit of a slog but then the Bears showcase that they are the better team and notch win No. 3 of the season despite the lack of style points

Scoreline: Cal wins 28-10
As has been, Cal will look rocky to start the game before slowly breaking away.
Cal 7 - SDSU 7 at Halftime
Cal 21 - SDSU 10 at end of 3rd Quarter

Scoreline: Cal wins 35-6
Cal Football will sustain the momentum from the big win at Auburn, and the Takers will pad their turnover stats against San Diego State's freshman QB.

Scoreline: Cal wins 48-14
No more 31-17 type of games against inferior teams. This is not a lull game between 2 large challenges. Cal dominates from the beginning to maintain the energy from the Auburn win in order to carry it into next week's FSU clash.

Scoreline: Cal wins 28-7
Cal will not cover and will not hit the over. Chances are that once Wilcox hits 21-0 he'll call off the dogs and just let the clock proceed with the undefeated march of time.
re @piotr predicting Cal somehow winning 28-7 but not covering an 18.5 point spread: I'm not a mathematician, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night ...
34-16 Bears
