So info tidbits..

Qb Rodney Williams has been sacked a League high 97 times!! 2nd place is Paul Johnson of "The U" with 71 sacks. Quite the margin im not happy about.

I am happy about is the way that Williams has performed under duress..check this.

Attempts: 660 (3rd)
Completions: 349 (5th)
Pct: 52.3% (20th,based on 200+Atts)
Yards: 5,851 (3rd 120yds separate 1-3)
Yds/att: 8.87 (13th based on 200+atts)
Sk/yd: 97/823 (1st)
TD: 38 (4th)
Int: 23 (8th)
Rtg: 87.76 (16th)

Now don't get me wrong. Not overly impressive stats but the fact that he has been sacked almost 30 more times than anyone else and perform that way. I love it but he's not the brightest bulb LOL

Seems as if I will have another tough road ahead of me this year a lot of formidable opponents..6 out of the first 8 games are against bowl teams last season including the Fighting Irish ,Scarlet Knights, Oklahoma sooners, The midshipmen of Navy, Cowboys of Oklahoma State and the Huskies of Washington.

Outside of those six games there are still a lot of coin flips Oregon ducks played us real tough in Oregon thumping us by 40..you also have a home game against the Utah Utes who really came on strong last year and due for big things this year.

In the end if the ball bounces my way in somebody's games I project myself Anywhere from 6- 10 to 8-8.

Let's get it on.

After an Abysmal Start to the season (0-4) and things looking Grim early on for the Cal Bears they sought answers from anywhere and everywhere after a 57-22 defeat at the hands of #2 Oklahoma.

GM/HC Dash had this to say to the local media.

"It's MY job to make sure this team is prepared and ready to go week in and week out, it's MY job to recruit the best players for our program and put us in the best position to WIN and i just haven't done that. WE all need to work harder for our goals including MYSELF.

Outside of the Classroom and Outside of Home, this locker room is Family, and i need to do a better job getting these Kids ready for the next level and beyond. I feel like i'm letting them down and not holding up my end of the bargain."

After hearing the words of their Coach, The California Golden Bears knew it wasn't Coach Dash that has let them. It was themselves. Using his speech as inspiration the Golden Bears have put the pedal to the metal and haven't looked back since dispatching upper echelon teams.

The will look to keep the momentum into the 2nd half of the season and it starts this week when they host #3 Oklahoma State Cowboys. Get your popcorn ready folks..gonna be a helluva ride down the stretch.

At quick glance i see a lot of winnable games and a lot of familiar foes, for the 5th straight year California plays the Scarlet Knights of Rutgers, we also get to host up and coming Iowa Hawkeyes and UCLA Bruins. We also look forward to playing the remaining teams of the Big Ten Conference. Ohio St visits Berkeley 2nd time in League history and California gets to visit the "Big House" to take on the Michigan Wolverines, Our 1st visit since the 2018 season.

We also have the privilege to play members of the Atlantic Coast Conference this season a conference that is always in the Bowl talks, which include Home games vs Clemson and Florida State Seminoles, Traveling to Hard Rock Stadium to take on the Hurricanes of Miami and also a trip to the Carrier Dome to take on the rejuvenated Syracuse Orange.

As an added Bonus Cal gets to play the Black Knights of Army for the 2nd straight season, they are always a handful even on "off" year

Inter-division rivalries have been at it's highest, Oregon seems to be build a great defense and expect them to take a step forward this season, and Washington always a threat to make some noise with no regression in sight. The pressure is mounting on the Stanford Cardinals to turn the corner they have compiled only 4 wins in 3 seasons, GM JCSwishman might be shown the door if the Cardinals cant get it together this season.

This seasons opponents have a combined winning percentage of .507 from last season, a schedule full of very winnable games.
