SDSU isn't a walkover, and everyone has their UCD game so I guess that cancels out?
The UCD game came about as a result of the cancellation of the Bill Walsh Legacy Game series, right?
I couldn't find anything about future OOC opponents on gostanford.com, but found the following at http://www.fbschedules.com/ncaa/pac-10/s...rdinal.php:

Pretty solid, although I wonder why we scheduled William & Mary in 2020. Another consequence of the now-defunct BWLG? To quote an old song: "One of these things is not like the other..."
If there's one thing people have learned in Berkeley, it's that you can't put "Cal football" and "Rose Bowl" in the same sentence. The words just don't fit. You'd be better off linking "covered wagons" with "Mars travel." (Bruce Jenkins, Cal '70, SF Chronicle, Nov. 11, 2017)
