Last year around this time we collective Cal fans made our trek to the friendly and ugly Stanford confines in Palo Alto for the Big Game. This was the year in which we were supposed to finally end the stranglehold Stanford had on the axe. We had the best quarterback at Cal since Aaron Rodgers and a loaded roster of NFL ready upperclassmen capable of putting a crooked figure on any defense. The result of that game didn’t go as planned and several people pointed to game mismanagement as a large reason for Cal enduring yet another defeat by our dreaded rivals.
