Cal ... WTF!?!?!?!?

Still can't beat OSU at home. Still can't win in LA. We were on the cusp of being #1 in the country and now we'll be #20 or so. Pathetic. We're going to be ranked behind Kansas. *sigh*

How does the kicker get hurt for the season 20 minutes before the 1st game? How come we don't have a decent backup?

Why can't Cal ever get over the damn hump? This Sisyphus crap kills me as a sports fan.

Hey Tedford, what's with the wussy playcalling again? Longshore goes 16/19 in the first half and the running game is non-existant and yet we go almost exclusively run in the second half? Huh? Playing not to lose tends to end up costing you wins. The defense isn't exactly the 2000 Ravens.

Hey Alex Mack, you're the leader of the oline and possibly the best player on the team. How about not killing drives with penalties? "Hidden play" of the day: Cal up 21-20 in the 4th quarter, 2nd and 8, Longshore to Hawkins for a 1st down around midfield nullified by a Mack hold. Cal runs on 2nd and 18 and 3rd and 18 (double huh?) and then punts.

Hey Jahvid Best, how about not losing a fumble next week? It'd be a nice change of pace.

That, btw, is the big difference between the 5-0 start and the 0-2 implosion. Cal was among the leaders nationally in turnover differential and then was -2 in each of the losses (and in each loss the game deciding points came off of Cal turnovers).
