As we turn to a new generation of California Golden Bears football, I decided to make some early projections about what comes next for Cal. Will Cal finally return to being a perennial seven to eight win team, as the Bears tended to be for much of the 2000s? Or will things be a bit more unpredictable?
Here are five quick predictions.
1. Cal will struggle to maintain a top 25 offense.
The Bear Raid days are over. Beau Baldwin is in and he’ll definitely be able to lead a competent offense. He’s proven his worth at Eastern Washington.
