Week 1: UC Davis (0-0) @ Cal (0-0) Just now regrouping after spending the day at Cal yesterday. Great turnout at the alumni tailgate and seeing old friends. Enjoyed hanging with Dr and Mrs Mike. $45 to park, ouch!
I thought Hasting’s did OK, although it would have been interesting to see Dixon get some snaps. And when Thompson is in, Cal had that figured out every time with the wildcat. Every other opponent will as well.
The guys played Cal tough. Hastings is lucky he only has 2 pics. Easily could have been 4 or 5. But he was throwing into coverage at every toss. Credit Cal. Their secondary was tenacious and they had real good speed, like that pic in the endzone when the Cal defender raced over to grab the pic. That was a razor sharp pass.
The Cal QB started off slow. Heck, how many 3 and outs did we get early? But then he got his mojo going. He’s going to be a really good QB for them. And the RB, #6, that dude has some real speed.
I see tons of potential for this team. Too bad were going from the frying pan to the fire.
