story by Megan Kinninger Photos by Jerry Tsai Most people considered the Golden Bear (iiotlwll scoson of 20(11 ;i ilisasrer. The team played 1 1 games only to win one. Ilie lone win was the last game of the season against Rutgers on No etnher 23, 200 1 with a score of 20- 1 0. As a result of ha ing the third most challenging schedule in the nation, the team ' s average point deficit in the final statistics was 22.7 points. V irhout that sole ictory, the Bears would have joined ranks with three C;al football teams from the lS ' Os who had winless .seasons, (-al fans deserted the stands, which often looked bleak as the season continued. 1 lead coach Tom 1 lolmoe lost most respect from the lans anil ended up resigning hv the end of the sea.son, ending his fifth season with the program. Was there a .saving grace for this disastrous .season beyond the one win against a less-than-respectable team. ' A look at the l()4th Big Ciame, which took place November 1 7, gives a taste of the true Golden Bear spirit, a spirit that can oh iouslv shine through a lackluster season. Most predicted that Cal was going into this game without a hope of even coming close to the Stanford C:ardinal, ranked I ,kh in the nation at the time. Would the ri alrv li e on. ' ( ould Oal step above its losing season to play well against the (Cardinal, its all-tin)e ri al. ' The answer came with three minutes and one second left in the first ([uarter when Calilornia ' s junior safety Nnamdi .Asomugha intercepted a pass from Stanford ' s (;hris Lewis and ran for a 16-yard touchdown. This score iraxe ( al the lead 10-7 over Cal ' s offensive line sets to face its rival — the Stanford defensive line.
