The Big Game and Beyond

Considering that this year's Bonfire Rally and Big Game would be my last as an undergraduate at Cal, I had been weary in the weeks past about getting uncharacteristically emotional and depressed after the excitement had worn off. This may seem silly to some, for whom football was never particularly important, but for me, Cal football and our tremendous turn around from the awful 1-10 season freshman year to the nearly undefeated run this year really represents a heavily ingrained part of my college experience - one which I will probably remember long after the lingering memories of classes, professors, and education have subsided.
