Incredible Comeback Lifts Bears Over ASU

Cal Rallies From 21 Points Down To Win 48-46 In Regular Season Finale

BERKELEY, California – At several key points throughout the 2015 season, Cal football coach Sonny Dykes has spoken of how proud he is of the resillience shown by his team no matter the result or the circumstance.

After watching the Bears rally from 21 points down for the first time since 2007, it wasn't hard to imagine that same feeling of immense pride running through Cal's head coach in the immediate aftermath of his team's 48-46 victory over Arizona State in Saturday's regular season finale.

Hogan’s brilliance & Ukropina’s heroics cap Stanford Football senior day thriller

STANFORD, California –  Conrad Ukropina kicked a 45-yard field goal as time expired to give Stanford a 38-36 victory over Notre Dame in a regular-season finale with national playoff implications before a sellout crowd of 50,242 at Stanford Stadium on Saturday night.

Hogan signals to the sky after every touchdown pass. Jerry and Kevin were regulars at Notre Dame Stadium. Asked if his father was somehow watching, Hogan replied, “I have no doubt. I feel it.”

In his final home game, fifth-year senior Hogan completed 17 of 21 passes for 269 yards and four

Bears Battle But Fall At No. 5 Utah

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah - A turnover-laden first half dug a hole too deep for the Cal football team to climb out of as the No. 22/23-ranked Bears dropped a 30-24 decision to No. 5/7-ranked Utah and fell for the first time in 2015.

Cal (5-1, 2-1 Pac-12) amassed 467 total yards and 340 through the air but turnovers plagued the Bears as Jared Goff completed 25 of 47 passes for 340 yards, two touchdowns and five interceptions. Utah's Devontae Booker was the statistical star of the day, rushing for 222 yards and 2 touchdowns on 34 carries. While Cal managed to force three turnovers on the night, the Bears also turned it over six times themselves.

Faced with a six-point deficit with time winding down, Cal got one last shot at a comeback. A strong
