Welcome back to Memorial Stadium, Cal Football! Opening at home against FCS Weber State, the Bears looked to continue their momentum after a heartening win in Chapel Hill. Cue foreboding mood music...
First Quarter
If there is something Cal fans are accustomed to feeling, it’s the inevitable sluggishness following a promising win. Yet after the Bears’ first march down the field in Memorial Stadium went 66 yards on 6 plays and lasted for 2.5 minutes ending in a touchdown, there was hope this game might be different. Oh how the tides change.
Of the first three drives, two resulted in 3-and-outs.
