• Harbaugh says preparing for the Bears this week is like preparing to go against an NFL defense. 
• Just like last week, Brock Mansion and the Cal defense are on Ted Miller's "What to Watch."
• Anthony Miller, Darian Hagan, Marc Anthony, and Jeremy Ross are all injured but they all should play this weekend.
• Brock Mansion puts the rivalry aside to say he really enjoys watching Andrew Luck play.  Brock's preparation and unflappability have impressed Tedford.
• Mike Mohamed, Sean Cattouse, and Andrew Luck relive the game-sealing interception from last year's Big Game.
• Vereen looks back on the "best team win of [his] career."
