Get ready.
I've been to several Cal. games this year, and I have to say the coaching job and effort is not like the Cal teams of the past.
I expect to see a gameplan and performance like the USC game. Even in their loss to K.state,there was no quit in the bears.
With as much preparation time involed I'll go with Tedford over Beamer..
Either way you decide,
GL & ENJOY!

Another spectacular performance by Cal. This team is indeed fun to watch!
Jeff Tedford has made alot of QB'S winners and knows how to motivate teams. He did it for Oregon, and now he's doing it for Cal.
After a dismal 1-10 year he turned the Bears into a 7-5 team last season, and was voted pac 10 coach of the year.
Now Cal needs to do something about improving its facilities, if they are serious about continueing the success.
I have a good feeling that next year the Bears are going to have alot to say about who wins the pac 10, unless the NFL makes an offer that Jeff Tedford can't refuse.
It will be interesting to see what happens.

Thanks CC..I posted this one going out the door on my way to Reno. Got the split with Washington St./ Texas under 47 when I was at Harrahs..Got Arkansas -3 this morning,
and for the latest update.
BOSTON COLLEGE -1
Checked Cal Neva & Atlantis for a better number to no avail...I dont think it will matter though.
Boston college has faced stiffer competition and has been very competetive.. I think Colorado st is a notch below BC. BC should be motivated enough to have a good showing.

Too much has been said about USC getting snubbed out of the sugar bowl..Public perception makes USC look easy. I don't think this will be the case, as Michigan is a quality ball club... Getting points is a bonus.
I'm going for the value here, with a solid team getting the cover and possibly an outright win.
Michigan +7

Got two live 4 teamers on the last legs. The 2nd one is posted on the NFL site.
To hedge or not to hedge?
Ok I thought about it, I've been in the black all year, and have decided to continue gambling. Why you ask? Becouse it's in my blood!!
For good reasons, I'll stick with the winner to the end.
Oklahoma -6.5
