Maybe the bears should all wear earplugs on road games. The noise was clearly the number one factor for the mental lapses.

…I really don’t see Oregon dropping two more and this Cal team running the table.

It’s possible that Oregon will drop two conference games but highly unlikely that Cal will run the table. Even if they get past USC next week, a big if, they won’t win all their games on the road. They might win out at home but not on the road. Tedford has to figure out why his team is so bad on the road and correct it. If not, they will never win the Pac 10.

Onto SC–one of the big concerns about playing SC next week among the plethora of their weapons is the blueprint we exposed on national TV yesterday in Eugene–dumping short passes to the second level to their skill players (McKnight, Havili, McCoy among others) to neutralize our DL and have our LBs cover or shed blocks and take the proper angle to make the play–which obviously didnt happen at all yesterday. If we dont figure this one out this week, it could be a long afternoon…

Well, Cal is in last place with U$C. Go figure.

Stanford won and they are 2-0. I said they would have a better record to end the conference than you would.

You lose to USC, you lose to pucla, you lose to one of the Arizonas, you lose to Stanford and you lose to either Oregon State or Washington.

Looks like another 6-6 year for a team that was supposed to go to the BCS. Bah!

This game was a collective effort by Cal: special teams, offense, and defense.
The Pac-10 schedule is always brutal so to start out 3-0 in the non-conference schedule was nice but past performance is not an indicator of future performance. The remaining schedule will be difficult. At home Cal is invicible, but on the road Cal is invisible.
On the radio broadcast, Starkey said this game reminded him of the Bears rout of the Redskins (73-0)in the 1940 championship game where the Redskins’ coach was asked if the score would have been different had the Redskins scored earlier and he said the score would have been 73-7.

Cal was outplayed on the field and we had no chance in winning.

I agree that the USC game next week is big. It could be the difference between the Holiday Bowl or some lesser bowl. The Rose Bowl is still possible but I really don’t see Oregon dropping two more and this Cal team running the table. I’ll believe it when I see it. This is too much of a friggin’ pattern.

i don’t think the fullback or tight end touched the ball, either. there was no time to throw. the offensive light was an embarrassment, but if you can’t protect your passer for more than 2 seconds, you shouldn’t be passing for 20+ yards. ludwig cost us big time.

Another great point Eric. I was screaming for the same thing. Alright enough posting I’ve said my piece. Let’s forget about this one (although the media won’t let us) and get ready for the Trojans. Roll On!!
