Don James needed a miracle to escape Berkeley with a W in 1991...Peterson's going to need some of that same magic Saturday.
Regardless of what the old fat man says, I'm not a Cal fan at all...i fucking hate them...but their offense is dangerous regardless of how bad their defense is.
That game was hard fought but how was it a miracle?
We needed a miracle in the '93 game at Cal, coming back from a 23-3 deficit. But not in 1991.
I was trolling your senior citizen buddy. HTH.
The real miracle is DJ got to avoid Terry Donahue that season. Terry Donahue owned DJ, even though TD was a mediocre coach.
If Donahue was a mediocre coach, what good coaches have been employed by the University of California, Southern Branch?
Dick Vermeil. And probably some really old fuck that is Races age.
Vermeil's best record at UCLA was 9-2-1 with a Rose Bowel win. That's good.
Donahue with 10-1-1 in 1982 (and won the Rose Bowl) He also went 9-2-1 in 1985 (and won the Rose Bowl) He also went 10-2 in 1988 (and won the Cotton Bowl)
The old man name you might be looking for is Henry Sanders, who went 66-19-1 over 8 years, invented the UCLA uniforms as we used to know them before Adidas fucked them up this year, and was responsible for UCLA's only Heisman winner and national championship

Well it's not like he had an Oregon history to study and learn when he became a college football fan in 1994

Henry Red Sandeds also was found dead from a heart attack in a motel with prostitute a few years after he won a NATTY. You should have read the full Wikipedia Page. F for effort, fag.
Donahue was mediocre. Most broon fans view him as a slightly more than 'okay'. In the 80s and 90s UCLA/SC/UW all took turns dominating the conference, the difference between Donahue and Don James is TD never made it to a natty with Troy Aikman. Those teams were loaded top to bottom. Also his down years in between QBs usually got real bad. His teams were also very conservative.
I love that we're home dogs ... love even more that the line is getting pushed more in that direction.
Generally rule is to beware of the home dog particularly when that dog has the better defense.
And finally, we beat Cal 31-7 last year at their place with Cyler Miles at QB. I don't see our defense being materially worse year to year. Browning should be an upgrade over Miles. Is Cal really 24+ points better than us in 12 months? I don't think so.
We should beat Cal because they still suck, but this is ridiculous. Cal played their worst game of the season on offense against us last year. Against defenses just as good or better, they performed much better.
So you're saying that Cal sucked last year because of Cal and not at all because anything UW did? Is that what you are saying?

What's the consensus on Washington? Do you guys think you are better or worse than last year?
Your trolling right? We are in the North so we suck every year. Until we join the south we are bad because the south is tuff. Outside of Shaq as a RB our O sucked with no QB. We had 4-5 great players on D that had holes and depth issues in the back end. Peters had trust issues and we had two stud db's that came along as the season went on.
I expect a good game and your D looks like our O last year and we still won at your place. We win rather easy, 34-17?
I think it opened at 2 or 2.5 and now it's Washington +4.5
Maybe the sharps will come in at the end of the week and push it down to UW +3.
The one thing the betting public tends to over-value is a high powered offense. And Cal (ranked too high) has managed to throw some points up on the board so far this year.
If the line keeps moving I'd like to lock in a bet sometime Thursday. If the line pushes again in the same direction like the BSU game, I'll probably double down. If the sharps move it back, I'll be happy I locked in.
What will be interesting is how your D does bs an offense that actually can be considered at least average. (Not trying to troll but it is true)
Our defense looked bad against Texas, but if you don't have a mobile QB, then it is a lot easier for us to defend.
They were sending 3 people deep through our shallow zone with the last being a wheel route. It was uncovered because we were worried about the QB running. They got a couple open receptions off it, so we switched coverage and didn't have CBs in the flats anymore. This allowed Heard to run, and he was just too fast for us.
Bottom line is that not many teams have a QB like that who can exploit our weakness.

Now I'm really looking forward to the O / U coming out. I'd guess it will be 66 with the under being enticing.
loserLooser will have between 20-27 pts.I expect a good game and your D looks like our O last year and we still won at your place. We win rather easy, 34-17?
