When contrasting offenses hit the field in the Lockheed Martin Armed Forces Bowl, it was the Bear Raid that came out on top as Cal knocked off Air Force, 55-36. Despite strong pushes from Air Force throughout the game, the clean play of Cal quarterback Jared Goff was enough to keep the Bears safely out in front to pick up their first bowl win since the 2008 season.
What the win means for Cal: This win is a good sign of progress for a team that went 1-11 just two seasons ago. It was likely Goff’s final game as a Bear and his team did its best to send him out in a way that is worthy of a player who helped turn this Pac-12 bottom dweller into a competitor in the league.
