Experts discover that we don't always lose to CAL!!!! (Cal thought of too highly)
Cal won 5 straight from 02 to 06. I still maintain the 02 loss at Husky Stadium cost Rick his job. It was that shocking to lose to a team we had beaten 19 straight times.
19 straight times from 76 to 01.
19 straight.
We? have gone 9-3 since that streak. The three losses are horrible and unacceptable but still only 3 losses in a dozen years does not mean we always lose to Cal.
My dad hated Cal and as @BearsWiin and I discussed this fall, true Huskies and Bears know of a rivalry that goes back to the Gil Dobie era
From the 20's to Don James Cal did have a winning record against UW. I recall my dad getting pissed as we? lost to Cal and he was listening on the radio. My very first Husky game was against Cal, a scintillating 7-7 tie in 1968. He hated the California schools and looked at the NW schools as a nuisance like any REAL DAWG fan
Anyway the 19 game streak gives us a 14 game series lead and over the last 40 years we always beat Cal. 28-8. 28-3 without the aberration. We should be in another streak but Jake Browning. And Haener

Aaron Rodgers was at Cal in 2003 and 2004, and in 2004 he barely threw the ball (12-23, 161 yds); Cal ran through and over UW with Arrington and Lynch. By the end of 2004 Cal had almost no healthy TEs or WRs, so we? ran the ball a lot more (44 rushes to 24 passes in the UW game). Rodgers was very efficient in his few passing attempts, but he also saw that the injured guys were all seniors who wouldn't be coming back in 2005 anyway, so he decided to declare for the NFL draft. Had he stayed, he would have thrown to a freshman DeSean Jackson, Cal would likely have beaten Oregon, OSU, and UCLA, and played USC late that year for the Rose Bowel. blah blah whatmighthavebeen
Marshawn was more instrumental in beating UW than Rodgers was -
Which is why I fell in love with Jeff Tedford. He ran the damn ball at UO and early at CalBearsWiin said:Aaron Rodgers was at Cal in 2003 and 2004, and in 2004 he barely threw the ball (17 attempts?); Cal ran through and over UW with Arrington and Lynch.

Also, people forget that the main reason the Pac sucks now is that the California schools turned into soft dog shit over the last few decades.

Cal and Stanford were always a bit hit and miss but USC was always there and UCLA was there a lot more than they are nowPurpleJ said:Also, people forget that the main reason the Pac sucks now is that the California schools turned into soft dog shit over the last few decades.
Cal had some great players in the 70's and pretty good teams that couldn't get past McKay or Ralston. Stanford won back to back Rose Bowls in 71 and 72 I think. Plunkett and then Bunce
Both the Bay Area teams suffered in the 80's and James never lost to either that decade -
UCLA is a soccer school now.

I went 3-3 in my career vs CAL.

Impressive, since Rodgers was a rookie with the Packers after that 56-17 game, which was in 2005DerekJohnson said:

Rodgers was QB for the 54-7 game in 2003 -
