Stanford @ Cal, 12/1/18, Noon, P12N
This is the game that was postponed due to poor air quality two weeks ago. Will be rooting for Cal in this one. I think if the Bears win this one, that could potentially move the Ducks up in the conference pecking order for bowls.

You may actually want Stanford to win because Cal winning would put them at 5 conference wins, making them a possibility for both the Red Box and Holiday Bowls. That could potentially drop Oregon down to the Sun Bowl.

Well, that's unfortunate, as I really don't want Stanford to win.

I could be biased, but I think either of those bowls would rather take Oregon than the 2 Cali schools. Those fan bases don't travel to their own home games, let alone any place else. If anything, it knocks Stanford down a peg, which could give Oregon a better chance at the Holiday Bowl.greenyellow wrote:You may actually want Stanford to win because Cal winning would put them at 5 conference wins, making them a possibility for both the Red Box and Holiday Bowls.

I suspect Oregon would bring more fans than either, even if it was in their own backyard, definitely to the Holiday Bowl though. It's just a bigger name football program than the other 2. I've been wrong plenty of other times though.

The Holiday Bowl has always been one of my favorites.

Stanford beats Cal 23-13. Basically keeps Oregon in prime position for one of the CA-based bowl games.
