This should be a fun/interesting road trip for the Rebels. Any of you going?

Would like to see Colonel Reb and "Dixie" come out of retirement for this one.

Last time I was on Cal's campus (around 8 years ago), I asked several students where the football stadium was and not one could tell me. They seriously had no clue. There was a guy living in a tree boycotting the stadium expansion and some random protestors but pretty calm overall. Nice campus and beautiful part of the country.

My overall opinion as well, not sure why it got a down vote.

Seems any who had any football leanings were grad students from a football undergrad school and Cal was not interesting to them as much as their undergrad team.

250 real fans and family will make the trip. The other 79,750 are already halfway off the 0le Mi$$ bandwagon

It would be an interesting trip just to see the culture clash.

Hayward fault line runs right down the middle of the field from end zone to end zone. It was falling apart.

"RULE NUMBER ONE of Bay Area building? Avoid the fault lines. Violator number one of rule number one? UC Berkeley’s Memorial Stadium, which was built smack on top of the Hayward Fault in 1922. The US Geological Survey once called the rift under the beaux arts arena a “tectonic time bomb,” and the stadium has already moved enough for the concrete walls to crack.

University reps hope that a $321 million unique, flexible retrofit, designed by a team of structural engineers, seismologists, and geologists, will keep things from getting any worse. They’re cutting two sections of the seating bowl into free-floating surface-rupture blocks that should move without crumbling even if the earth below shifts up to 6 feet."

You will be surprised how lackluster that place is,but certainly check out a Giants game and have a burrito in SF.

The look on the Cal faces when Ole Miss starts their hellacious "Hotty Toddy" chant will be priceless.

I'm surprised Berkeley hasn't protested football yet. That school has become a laughing stock, it's a shame.

I went to the Fresno State game back when Nutt was coaching. There might've been 40-50 Ole Miss fans there.

Mississippi isn't one of the states Cal is canceling sporting events with?

That's a shock.

Yeah, I'd be interested to see if Cal makes the trip to Oxford next year.

tickle fight.

No thanks.

As for Cal the school being a laughing stock: that's a severely demented take. Place is a first-rate academic institution habituated by truly brilliant minds. To knock the entire school based off a wonky fringe-left faction is pretty silly.
