Congrats Cal fans......
Stanford definitely didnt play well enough to win on offense(Passing mostly) or defense(not a suprise)……Kudos to Cal for the defensive gameplan…..and offense for controlling to clock and the LOS……Good luck next week and in your bowl game. Enjoy the win…

But not Harbaugh. Great coach, but a jerk.
Now go get Weis fired at Notre Dame (as if losing to UConn isn’t enought).

I think him being a "jerk" is what makes him good though......
Stanford tried the “nice guy route” coaching……..its not gonna work at football….He’s doing it his way……..sure he might ruffle some feathers…..but no coach at Stanford has had the kind of success he’s had here the entire decade pretty much……
Football is a results based business……not a nice guy contest………

There's winning and winning with class
I’m happy to win, but would rather do it with character. In the Holiday Bowl a few years back Tedford scolded his players for going for a TD when he called for running out the clock, then apologized to the Tx A&M coach and again at the beginning of his post-game interview, all while winning the game.
Harbaugh went for a 2-point conversion against USC with the game in hand. I’ll take Tedford ANY day. But Harbaugh’s a great coach, like I said above.
I hear there will be an opening at Notre Dame soon. Wherever Harbaugh is the next few years I bet Pete Carroll will get some well-deserved payback.

Why is it I feel animosity towards Stanford?
Watching the game yesterday I tried to not dislike the Furd fans. Hey, their a bunch of college kids and alumni who care about their team like we do, and are having fun. Maybe it’s the attitude. At every game they’re wearing their Beat Cal shirts, even if they’re losing to Wake Forest. It’s almost like they are rooting against Cal more than they are rooting FOR their team. Their ticket phone number is something like 1-800-BEA-CAL. I think it’s their ’tude that sticks in my craw.
I’d like to think Cal fans are different. I root for Furd when they play out o’ conference (I’m a Pac-10 homer), sometimes when they play in conference, and I’ve got a huge amount of respect for the University and sports programs. Maybe less bravado would help, and that starts with the coach.
I'd like to smell the Roses before I die.

They think their number is 800-BEAT-CAL.
What the idiot Furdies don’t realize is that their number is actually 800-BE-AT-CAL. They’re subliminally telling the world that students should come to Cal instead of the Furd.

Now I know you're not naive enough to think that Stanford can recruit the same kind of athlete that Cal can.....
Stanford is a private school, while Cal is a State school…..there’s admission difference……thus the standard of athletes are going to be different for a sport like football.

Weak excuses. My private school just locked up a share of the CAA this year after our national championship last year. You don’t see us complaining. If it wasn’t for our stupid kicker we’d still have the 2nd longest win streak in D1 going right now…

Stanfurd has had better recruiting classes than Cal the last 2 years, so I think that pretty much kills your argument. Strong academics will lose some recruits but draw others.
What might be a legit argument is that Tedford inherited more talent than Harbaugh. Or that he was able to recruit JC players, but I don’t honestly know if that holds either.

Look Im not trying to take anything away from your win today...
Cal most definitely earned it…….the coaches the players everyone…..but when people use the turnaround argument to compare Tedford and Harbaugh there is more to the story then just the caliber of the coaches………the players (quality of players) have alot to do with it too.

Well sure the recruiting classes are good....
but then you got a RS Frosh QB….and Frosh DB’s playing against upper-classmen……..the experience will trump raw talent a majority of the time.
Now if its still the same ole story in 2011 then I will agree with you.

by norcaliangelsfan on Nov 21, 2009 8:22 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs
The problem is by that time the hype is gone so the recruiting classes aren’t as good, so after your first big run at the Rose Bowl it’s tough to actually maintain that level for your program long term (again, see: Tedford, Jeff)
it’s amazing how much college football operates on trends…if you don’t capitalize in that first big rush where your team is the popular fad, things change very quickly….

Um, can’t a private school set whatever admissions standards it wants? On the other hand, doesn’t a state school have to set some sort of minimum admission requirement?
Stanford’s recruiting disadvantage, if any exists at all, is entirely self-created.

That’s true, but I’m guessing (not positive, but supposing) that the admission standards of both schools are above the bare NCAA minimum.

by markdash on Nov 21, 2009 8:49 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs
I would say thats a fairly safe assumption.
I think where the difference comes in though is in money for programs…….recruiting, coaches, etc……the better facilities you have for your school the better chances you get the better recruits……and I again (assuming here) think that Cal cares more about its football program and supports monetarily wise than Stanford does……(course that might be changing now)

Well, the problem you aren’t recognizing is sports are secondary to academics. Where the problem comes in is at private schools, which are generally smaller than public schools, it’s harder to hide the poor academics because it makes a bigger difference on the overall average…
by Missing Barry on Nov 21, 2009 8:45 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs
Are you saying that admitting a bunch of barely-NCAA-eligible athletes would hurt Stanford’s overall incoming class statistics? Like average GPA, SAT score, etc.?
Thing C
by markdash on Nov 21, 2009 8:49 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs
Yes. Well, I don’t know how big Stanford is, but my school was 3,000 kids, and we had something like 600 athletes overall. It’s a legitimate concern.
by Missing Barry on Nov 21, 2009 8:50 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs
Understandable.
I agree that athletics should, for the most part, be secondary to academics. My point was merely that (I believe) there are specific rules/laws which prohibit Cal from accepting anyone they want, whereas no such rules exist for Stanford.
For example, they can have their lofty admissions standards, but still accept a single player who has the bare minimum, whereas that recruit would not be allowed into Cal.
Is this true?

I play basketball with a Furd alum
Thursday we talked ‘bout the game. He respectfully says, "I don’t know, I just don’t think Cal has a chance this year." I said, “On paper, I’d have to agree. But you know what? It’s JUST when you think we don’t have a chance that, in The Big Game, we have a chance.” Can’t wait to call him today !!!!!!!

but it is what it is.

You had to throw when you were behind, so that is a lot of the attempts. I don’t think that Harbaugh thought the defense could get enough stops.

I think when the Score was 31-21 with like 10 min left
and Harbaugh threw it three straight times was a bad call…….he coulda let Toby run the ball some there…….but I dont get paid to make those decision, and hindsight is always 20/20

yes, but i also think it was a horrible call when we didn’t go for it on 4th and 6 inches at the 50. we got the yardage we needed all night after the initial hiccups. 2 plays after the punt to the 20, furd was right back at the 50.

Curious, this is the first Stanford game I’ve watched, how has your d-line played this year? We obviously kicked your ass tonight, but our o-line has not played very well this year…so I’m just trying to figure out if it was more that your d-line is bad or our o-line played well?
by Missing Barry on Nov 21, 2009 8:27 PM PST up reply actions 0 recs
the Defense as a whole hasnt been good.....
too slow…….if it wasnt for Toby and Luck scoring a ridiculous amounts of points they wouldnt have nearly as good as record as they do……and on the games where you see the teams scoring less than 20 ppg you can just go look at the TOP for the Cardinal on those games to see why the other teams Offense doesnt score as many points………But if you look at yardage given up……the team is just not good enough yet…….and like I said mainly that has to do with not being able to match up team speed on defense with the other teams offensive skill players.

Pac-10 teams always lose when they start to get hype. Our loss to Oregon, USC to Washington, Oregon to Stanford, Arizona and Furd to us…it’s a rough conference to have people think you’re good.

The SEC has had some of the WORST games this season (Arkansas-Georgia game aside).
Their offenses are pathetic and their defenses are overrated because they play such terrible offenses. Hell UW gashed a LSU defense that held Florida to like 13.

Which bay would that even be referring to? Suisun bay?
IMO “East Bay” should refer only to the land east of SF which can be reached by traveling one bridge (Bay Bridge). How far east that extends is open to interpretation, but once you go over the Carquinez or Benicia bridges, that ceases to be “East Bay” in my opinion.

Well as a native of the East East Bay (which yes, can reach SF by only going over one bridge), the real distinction isn’t in bridges, as much as entering the Central Valley. Once you start going East of my area, basically the real distinction between the Bay Area and everyone else is whether they’re in the Central Valley or not, but there’s definitely some gray area in the definition of Central Valley vs. Bay Area….

Of course, one of these years soon, we would need to make it to a BCS bowl, for no other reason than that our dear school can really use the extra money. Heck, I would even hope that Oregon St. can somehow be the 2nd BCS team from the Pac-10 for the extra revenue sharing to the leage.

i only followed these guys when CGB joined the SBNation or whatever this lil’ blog ring is called. But I’ve been following BearInsider for years (even back on Scout) and it’s like Cal fans in some Bizarro world where all wins are terrible and Tedford is Satan himself.

I can’t wait until we finally get to the Rose Bowl. Once that happens, I believe all the old blues will simultaneously expire in a great big sigh of (long awaited) satisfaction.
Then we can finally move forward as a fanbase without these non-cheering pessimists dragging us down

Cal goes to the Rose Bowl: “Fire Tedford. Some other coach would’ve gotten us the NC!”

Post game quote by Harbaugh
On the last play …
It was a big play. It was designed to go to Fleener .There are a lot of should’ves … he should’ve thrown it higher. We should’ve given him a better play at the time, a better play on the 4th and 9. A lot of should’ves offensively and defensively. It was a team loss, players coaches everyone
Cal did an outstanding job. They deserved the credit. They controlled the line of scrimmage most of the game especially in the 3rd and 4th quarter. It wasn’t just that one play. To win a game you have to win the phases: offense, defense. I thought we won special teams, but that’s only one.
ALAMAAAAAAAAR!

Big developments from our team today
1) Anthony Miller is clutch. He’s such a great pass catching TE.
2) Lagemann has the best hands on the team. He might be our Hawk.
3) Jones might be our Robert Jordan
4) Michael Calvin probably hurt his chances the most today.
5) Mohammed finally plays today like he did last year.
6) Our linebackers improved… significantly
7) Kendrick Payne and Browner stepped up
8) Nbafuie stepped up admirably.
In other words, Go Bears!

Honestly, he already looks like he’s at Morrah’s level. Maybe not quite as fast, but he’s bigger, give him some time to work on his blocking and get a little faster, and he’ll be head and shoulders above Morrah.

Cal’s had a relatively quiet history of having pretty fairly solid tight ends, most of which, save for Stevens, have been under the radar.

Stevens had stone hands. Probably what hurt him the most.
Morrah was our best receiving TE in the Tedford era that I can think of.

I think every tight end in the Tedford era, save for Eric Beegun (who both couldn’t block and catch well) have been either good blockers or good receivers, mostly the latter

Did Calvin have a case of the dropsies?
And Nbafuie was great from what I saw of him. But that taunt he pulled in the 4th quarter – just plain stupidity.
