Cal Gets Lucky--Beats BYU 35-28

The Vegas Bowl was "pretty good." Don Wilcox and I showed up at the pre-game festivities around 2:30. The game started at 5 and Cal marched down the field and scored and eventually had a three touchdown lead. Marshawn Lynch had nearly 200 yards in rushing. But BYU made a valiant effort and came within a touchdown and was driving with a minute and a half left before Cal hijacked a pass to end the game. Sam Boyd stadium sold out for the first time with 40K in attendance.
