Stanford has a lot riding on the Big Game, potentially with its last chance of notching a win this season. The Stanford Daily’s sports managing editor sat down with the Daily Californian to discuss the details of Cal’s most anticipated game of the season.

Fans can draw their own conclusions about what all of this means. But it would be completely unfair to blame Cal’s failures on the players themselves.

The Daily Californian looks to avenge their Ink Bowl last year by thrashing The Stanford Daily.

The time has come: the 125th Big Game, the 40th anniversary of The Play, the latest rendition of one of the oldest college rivalries in the nation. Set for … 2:30 p.m.?

Offensive coordinator Bill Musgrave and offensive line coach Angus McClure have been released from their duties as members of the Cal football coaching staff, effective immediately.

In its final road contest of the season, Cal was struck down by the Oregon State Beavers. The loss has mathematically ended the Bears season as they notch a third straight losing season.

Oregon State surged to a commanding 21-0 lead early in the second quarter –– a winning margin it expanded to win 38-10.

In its final road contest of the season, Cal will travel to Corvallis to challenge the formerly ranked Oregon State Beavers. It will be the last of a four-game stretch where the Bears faced current or former nationally ranked Pac-12 schools.

The latest hope in question took the form of Cal’s opening touchdown against USC, in a game that ultimately ended in a 35-41 blue and gold loss.

Cal had recently shown underwhelming performances, but the true fighting spirit on the gridiron this evening has redeemed some of that disappointment for fans. Final score: 35-41, Cal.
