As an FYI, I’m still working on putting together my On The Road Home podcast from the Arizona game. It’ll have audio quotes from the coaches and players as well as my normal commentary. I’ll go up tomorrow morning.

Coach and Player quotes from Arizona

You’ll hear a lot of this when I get my On The Road Home Podcast finished, but here’s the links at BearTerritory.net with all of those quotes:

Better… not great, but better

Sorry for the delay on this (YouTube rejected the upload from last Friday and then I didn’t have the video file on my laptop over the weekend to re-upload), but here’s the YouTube video of me on the 10/17 College Football NOW:

Now, it’s not great. I’m leaving my mouth open too much. I’m blinking too much. But considering what the previous one was like it’s vastly improved. In fact, what bugs me most is my bold prediction that Arizona should struggle against the 3-4. So much for that brilliant analysis!

Article on Verran Tucker

My 2nd spotlight article from the game is now posted over at BearTerritory.net:

http://cal.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=865091

  2. EMFMV: Posting of YouTube video of my College Football NOW appearance last friday (tonight)
  3. EMFMV: On the Road Home Podcast for Arizona with player quotes (today or tomorrow)
  4. BT: Practice podcast with player quotes (Weds)
  5. EMFMV: detailed photo or videoanalysis of why Arizona was able to seal the edge against Cal (Weds or Thurs)
  6. BT: Statistical preview of UCLA game (Thurs or Fri)

Finally, a shoutout to California Golden Blogs writer ragnarok who went on the road trip to Arizona with me. He made the trip a lot more enjoyable, particularly what would have been a REALLY long drive home after the loss and cut my gas costs in half. Thanks for coming along rag!

Why Riley was in the game

Here’s my article from the Arizona game about why Tedford decided to put Riley in. Lot’s of quotes from both Tedford and Riley on the subject. Longshore on the other hand didn’t want to talk to the press. Here’s the link:

http://cal.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=865018

It is a subscription article. You’ll likely see a second article posted over at BearTerrtiroy.net later today that I wrote last night.

This continues to be a free feature over at BT so go have a listen.

On TV again tomorrow

Well, it looks like my best impression of a person who’s ferret was lost in a tragic vacuum accident wasn’t enough to keep me off the air. I’ve been invited back on NFL Network’s ‘College Football Now’ tomorrow. It films in the morning and will broadcast later in the day, I believe at 3:00 PM PDT.

The NFL network is on channel 212 on DirecTV and caried on a number of other providers usually in the same range of channels as the “extra” ESPN channels like ESPN classic, etc.

I’ll make sure to post a YouTube of it after I’m done.

Playing at home

My next article is published at BearTerritory.net. This is a pretty unique article in that I combine player quotes and statistics in a review of just how much an advantage the Bears have playing at home.

If you’ve been needing an article to push you over the edge to get your BearTerritory.net subscription, this should be the one. There are some mind-boggling statistics I dug up when researching this article that you won’t see without that subscription.

Statistical Preview article posted

My weekly statistical preview article, comparing Cal to Colorado State can be found at BearTerritory.net:

http://cal.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=855229

It is a subscription article.

For what it’s worth, if you want to do your own analysis on the statistics I generate, remember that you can generate the exact same statistics for any Pac-10 matchup. Just click on the “Stats” link towards the top of the page and then select the teams you want to compare. You could compare two teams like, oh I don’t know, USC and Oregon State. Everyone knows USC blew out Oregon State last night, you didn’t even have to watch… right?

Maryland articles published

Here are my two articles that were published at BearTerritory.net after the Maryland game:

Cal-Maryland Postgame reaction

Both are subscription articles.
