Cal has two games remaining in the season and the one that means most to Bears fans is set to take place Saturday when Stanford comes across the bay for the 127th Big Game. This year's matchup has as much intrigue as ever with the Bears still fighting for bowl eligibility and the Cardinal coming to Berkeley after beating No. 22 Louisville.
Tuesday, Cal coordinators Mike Bloesch and Peter Sirmon spent some time talking with reporters about this week's matchup, what to expect from their respective sides of the ball Saturday and more.
Cal has several players who will be playing in their first Big Game while many others will take the field for the last time against their rival. Quarterback Fernando Mendoza, Bay Area native Jack Endries and sixth-year senior Craig Woodson all took time Tuesday to provide their thoughts on Saturday's contest.
