Cal has routinely started off strong only to fade hard in the 2nd half of the season. It appears that they are following their trend of starting strong and are coming off of a blowout home win over Colorado. The Bears have a high scoring offense and a good offensive mind in Jeff Tedford. I expect Cal to move the ball up and down the field all night against the porous defense of Nevada. The Wolfpack have really struggled when they have played BCS conference teams. Last season Missouri beat them at home and Notre Dame blew them out on the road. The season before that Texas Tech went into Reno and handled Nevada and Missouri blew them out on the road. California doesn’t have far at all to travel and Nevada doesn’t have a huge home field advantage. The Golden Bears also have some experience against Nevada’s pistol offense by facing Oregon every season. While it’s not the same, it’s still the concept of an offense with a running and elusive quarterback. Look for the talent difference and Cal’s passing attack against a very weak Nevada defense to be the deciding factors in this game.
