6. Louisville 12-1 1,338
7. Wisconsin 12-1 1,288
8. Michigan 11-2 1,145
9. Auburn 11-2 1,112
10. West Virginia 11-2 1,035
11. Oklahoma 11-3 933
12. Rutgers 11-2 884
13. Texas 10-3 772
14. California 10-3 697
15. Arkansas 10-4 677
16. Brigham Young 11-2 673
17. Notre Dame 10-3 553
18. Wake Forest 11-3 551
19. Virginia Tech 10-3 407
20. Boston College 10-3 353
21. Oregon State 10-4 291
22. TCU 11-2 279
23. Georgia 9-4 204
24. Penn State 9-4 183
25. Tennessee 9-4 181

I'll give you Arky and Tenn. Georgia? BYU? ND? Wake? BC? OSU (who we beat by 5 tds)? All these teams are better than Cal?

BC, Va Tech, UGA, BYU, and Notre Dame would have all had their way with Cal. Given the Hall of Fame Bowl result, I would have to like Penn State's chances. TCU would be a toss up.

I see so teams like oklahoma that were in the toilet before their current coaches got there are real programs because they won before that? It's impossible to be lousy and then good 5 years later? How many teams have won the national championship with in 4 years of a 3-8 season? Quite a few I would say.

Oklahoma has been a dominant force in college football for the better part of a century. Cal has played moderately successful football for about 8 minutes. Comparing those two programs is like comparing the Artic Circle to an ice cube. Find me all these teams that have won a National Title within 4 years of a 3-8 season. Other than the 2000 Oklahoma team, I can't think of one.

you are ridiculous. ND couldn't have their way with UCLA (a team Cal destroyed). BC, TCU, BYU, and Virgina Tech didn't play anyone all season.

If you're using that type of spurious logic, Penn State would have beaten Cal so badly, the game would have been stopped midway through the second quarter. Also, Air Force would have drilled you. Further, Kentucky would have worn you out. South Carolina would have cleaned your clock.

Buy if we beat you that means you stink remember. I'll make sure to remind you of that come sept 3rd. It would be pretty embarising to lose to a team that couldn't win the conference usa.

The fact that we are even having this discussion shows that tedford is not overrated. He's also had 5 staight top-20 recruiting classes. A joke compared to you guys I know, but not bad for a 1-10 program.
