Long story short: CGB is you're source?!?

People were scared to play a team coached by a guy with one shared conference title in all of his years?
This is news. Oregon went 5-6 that year and a dropped gimme touchdown gave Cal the win in Berkeley.
As always, Cal is too high.
Angry?

Thanks you to Galdstone for correcting the formatting issue so I can respond to the duck:
I'm glad you brought up "that year," the 2004 game. That was exactly what good teams do; they take the best that the other team has in the first half, then completely flatten them in the second. Oregon gained 310 yards in the opening 30 minutes, and gained exactly 56 after halftime. Cal rolled in the second half, and while duckie fanz look to the dropped pass at the end of the game, they conveniently forget the missed Cal FG and Robert Jordan fumble at the Oregon 28 in the second half. The only reason Oregon was in a position to threaten at the end of the game was due to Cal's own unforced errors. Huskieies might remember their own experience with Cal that year, where the Bears blew open a close 13-12 game at the half to roll to a 41-12 final. Cal ran the ball 42 times that game, while throwing only 17 times, as most of the Cal receiving corps was injured.
Oregon probably wasn't scared to play the Bears in 2006, but after the game I'm pretty sure they wanted nothing to do with Cal. 45-24 with two meaningless Oregon TDs to end the game, Marshawn faceplanting Chung, Dante Rosario stepping on a Bear in frustration as DeSean scampered for a spectacular TD, Dixon getting shredded, Stewart gaining maybe 25 yards the whole game. But maybe you're on to something; Oregon probably just wasn't smart enough to be scared.
The bar isn't high at Cal. It never has been.
You have a fan base of old blues who actually like winning. At a school that doesn't want to appear as if winning is the only thing that matters.
Like Stanford these days which puts pressure on Cal like Oregon did on us? in the we don't care if it looks like winning is all we care about category.
I noticed in the stands that they did not like the slap happy Dykes offense and no defense anymore than we? do.
You have to win the Big Game and beat USC once in awhile.

disagree. but then again, I don't care.
Disagree
Seriously. If we're talking about where modern day chemistry was invented, then you can come here and swing your dick around.
But listening to war stories about Cal football is like, well, talking about things we? haven't fucked up at Washington State. Boring, and very limited.
