Common Guy Prediction Thread – CAL

41-23 Texas.  If we shake off any travel jitters/cobwebs early enough, we should hit 50+.

Looking at their schedule, I doubt Cal makes it to 5 wins this year.

 
we are at an interesting point.  we've had one extra-impressive win and look poised to have a good season.  it's way too early to be talking about end of season, but i know that a lot of teams start now making their case for bowl game/playoffs.  big wins with lots of points really push a team up the rankings.

i think we see charlie and the gang priorizing on building the team right now.  do you guys expect we'll continue to emphasize that at the expense of big scoreboard and higher ranking or do you think we'll hunker down at some point and push for points?

A solid win plus team building would be ideal. I don't think we want to show everything we have on offense. I think people who are still a little banged up will get pulled early if possible. I think that is more important than an absolute blowout.

that's how i see it.  i kinda bet coach see it that way, too.  let the scores take care of themselves while we build a team with the depth to prevail.  if the voters want to see numbers they'll get numbers when the team is ready.

 
We are going to score so often and so quick that our defense will be totally gassed.  Cal's defense is even worse than Tech's.

69 - 17
