Boy, this sounds familiar After a 5-0 start and a less-than-impressive finish, Cal has been selected for the Armed Forces Bowl and will face the Air Force Falcons in Fort Worth. The game will take place on December 29th at 11 am Pacific, 2 pm Eastern on ESPN.
Cal last played Air Force...in 2007, in the Armed Forces Bowl, coming back from 21-0 to win 42-36.
Cal went 7-5 this season, starting the year 5-0, including wins over Texas in Texas, Mountain West champions San Diego State, 8-4 Washington State, and 6-6 Washington. The Bears then stumbled with four straight losses, with two narrow six point losses to Utah and USC, and decisive defeats to Oregon and UCLA.
