Can\'t say I delight in opponent injuries.
However Riley seemed to play four or five levels above his talent against Stanford, so I guess any other C.a.l QB is a good deal for Stanford.
Still trying to figure out why C.a.l was good at home and terrible on the road. Â I suspect the quality of the opponents had something to do with that trend. Â Oregon was going to bust them up at Memorial, and was definitely going to soften them up for Stanford.
I thought C.a.l might stop their road losing streak against Wazzu, but now I think Wazzu just might take them.

As I posted elsewhere, there\'s a history of back-up UCBerkeley quarterbacks coming up big against Stanford in the Big Game -- for example, J Torchio in 1980, Kevin Brown in 1986, Steve Levy in 2005. So I\'m not going to get excited about facing a back-up QB in the Big Game . . .

That\'s true Terry but those back-ups MIGHT come up big against us while Reilly already has.
Confidence seems to be everything to that kid and with his history and the playing-at-home factor he probably WOULD have a big game. I doubt that will be good enough but then again, I doubted it would be last year too.
I\'m still shocked that a Cal team, blown out by USC and UO, could beat a Luck and Gerhart led Stanford at home.
That\'s the Reilly I remember so I probably over-rate him. Â Even so, I\'m never happy when a college kid, playing for free, comes down with a serious injury. Â It\'s the dark side of the game we love.

Last year cal completed short passes against us all day and drove down the field more often than we could. Â We never did anything to stop it, so they never did. :(
