Cal 78, Wyoming 72 (OT): Bears survive high altitude scare to beat Cowboys (and Refs)

It wasn't easy nor pretty, but the Bears made "Dome of Doom" a Bear Territory on Saturday afternoon.

At an altitude of 7165 feet above see level, Laramie, Wyoming was no common place to play. Despite Wyoming being a very young squad, dressing 6 freshmen for the game, this game was one that the Bears cannot assume to win. In the first true road game of the season (Bears only played at Las Vegas for the Las Vegas Invitational outside of Berkeley so far this season), our California Golden Bears (6-2) survived a tough test that once again demonstrated that there are still plenty of work to do before the Bears can live up to the hype of this season.
