You had better know the answer to this one … “The Play” has made an appearance on the game show Jeopardy, and it’s a perfect way to start looking forward to next year’s Big Game and our new coaching staff, headed by Sonny Dykes.

Even more important, though, is the fact that this is just one more reminder to the rest of the nation why UC Berkeley is better than those-who-must-not-be-named. You know, the college Voldemort went to after graduating from Hogwarts. They call themselves a university — please.

“What are laterals, Alex?” Just to clarify, but you already knew that.

We’re sure that if Jeopardy knows a contestant behind any of the podiums is from UC Berkeley, the show wouldn’t be throwing this or any other Berkeley-related questions up on the board … But hey, we’re from Berkeley, we’ll win anyway.
