come on guys, did the regular season teach you anything?
i can understand picking Cal to win straight up, but A&M hasn’t lost by 5 all season.

Brad, what happened in the second half? I think maybe they had a little let down after beating Texas.

I had a feeling Cal would put some points on A&M but I didn’t expect their defense to shut down the Aggies like they did.
