Rating the Bears: The Interception Bowl

2018 was certainly a memorable year for Cal football. We defeated USC, we upset the Pac-12 champs, we completed another sweep of a home-and-away series against a Power 5 team, we forced about a million turnovers, and we made opposing offenses (besides UCLA) miserable for three agonizing hours every Saturday. There were some events that were memorable for the wrong reasons: that UCLA game which I still believe is the worst Cal football performance I have ever seen (42-3 ain’t got nothing on that loss), an incredible number of turnovers returned for TDs, and an offense whose ineptitude rivaled Andy Buh’s 2013 defense.
