Former Cal QB in Fightin' Shape
Some Cal Bear fans are still pissed about being left out of the 2005 Rose Bowl in favor of Texas, and the last Bear QB to lead Cal to the Rose Bowl apparently is ready to try and settle the score -- man-to-man. Joe Kapp was an All-American in 1958 for the Bears, and he is the only player to...
Holiday Bowl Preview: California Offense
DANG! What's up with all these books? Read this 1868 write-up in the New York Times detailing a not-so-epic, mostly very sad, Texas bull-California grizzly contest decried as a "burlesque of civilization" (after several breathless paragraphs detailing the action, mind you). It is equal parts...

Open Thread: Holiday Bowl - Ndamukong Suh vs. Arizona Wildcats
As Texas fans we witnessed a game that probably single-handedly cost Colt McCoy the Heisman while simultaneously elevating Ndamukong Suh into Heisman contention and ultimately allowed him to shag six valkyries on his way to Asgard and kick Odin's ass out of his throne. So, let's see what he can do...
Texas 2009 = BYU 1984? Cross Your Fingers
It’s very easy to see that title and find it somewhat disconcerting or annoying. It kind of annoys me. The differences between BYU in 1984 and Texas in 2009 are there at the surface, of course. Texas is a “have” and BYU in 1984 was a “have not”. We have the early season...
Holiday Bowl - 2000
is showing on ESPN Classic. We're all pretty much starved for Texas football right now, right? I've never seen it on TV since this is the one out of state Texas game I chose to attend. This should be fun. Pick it up just after Oregon goes 80 yards to score on their opening drive (only the third...
Goodbye San Diego, Hello San Antonio
The Pac 10 and Big 12 are getting ready to dump the Holiday Bowl as its showcase bowl match up and put the Pac 10's runner-up team and the Big 12 #3 team in the Alamo Bowl The San Antonio-based bowl is boosting its payout to $3 million per team - which is $650,000 more than the Holiday Bowl will...
It's Bowl Season: Time For Some Serious SWAG
Forget about the BCS. Forget about a future playoff system. It's time to look at what the college post-season is all about. It's all about giving. It's bailout time for college football teams, and bowl officials are more than happy to perform the role of Congress in doling out the goodies. In fact,...
Why I'm An Optimist
Up until the latter half of 2004, I was a pessimist. Our teams never showed direction, our players never developed, and any team with good coaching seems to negate our talent advantages with ease. It peaked with the Washington St. Holiday Bowl, a game that should've ended Greg Davis' career. It...
Heads up to Cleve, Maddog, and Chris Jessee
The NCAA is no longer issuing warnings for players and "coaches" on the field -- it will be a five yard penalty. We might need a $180,000 "Get Back!" coach.
