Buckeyes by 3 scores. These are not Aaron Rodger's Bears.

Nervous that we may lose, potentially costing a national championship season.

This isn't Navy, we actually care about winning football games and not just being loyal and blah blah blah

Ahhh..nervous about losing. thanks for clarifying.

It wasnt a criticism. I genuinely didn't understan yor suggestion.

You don't think followers of the Naval Academy care about winning? ...Interesting perception consdering the 4800 or so Mids get extended leaved when the football team wins. I promise you, they care.

Thank god he graduated last year, he almost led them to victory.

Hopefully the defense can slow them down better than last year (read: actually wrap up the RB). If they do that there won't be a problem. Cal's defense won't stop OSU.

I'll be there. Can't wait. Just to see a bunch of buckeye fans!! When I got my tickets, the cal ticket office said they were expecting 15k+ buckeye fans. Gonna enjoy San Francisco for a few days as well.

Hope the buckeyes play well.

I don't think the Buckeyes will have a difficult time here at all.

Only because of the extended leave, not because of the football aspect.

Most dont expect cal to be good again. Going through another coaching change but they return a lot outside of keenen Allen. They'll be decent but I doubt they could beat osu.

With the tickets I got, I had to purchase oregon state tickets. So 2 games for 90 bucks. Ill sell the other ones and so I got on cal forums to offer them up and people are telling me ill have trouble selling them for anything because that game wont be close to sold out and most games there aren't. I cant believe a team in cali in a major conference can't sell out conference games.

Another coaching change? Tedford was there for 11 years, which is a long time in today's college game.

With Dykes taking over, this game has me anxious. Their offense could give us fits again.

Cal was a lot tougher than I thought they'd be AT the shoe last season. I dont think this will be a cake walk. I'll be in attendance, 10 rows behind the Bucks bench. Cal ticket office said it's the most highly sought after ticket in their school history. Pretty sad for a team that plays ND and USC every year.

Eh..when I was selling tickets to Rutgers games, I'd tell people that for a lot of games lol Sales tactic. Doubt it's their most anticipated game in school history.

But I do agree I don't think it'll be that easy..we struggled, annoyingly, with them at the shoe last year.

Depends on how the defense plays in this one. Not worried at all about the ability to score points against Cal.

Tackling was a short coming last year in the game so hopefully the defense comes ready to play.
