***** If stanford truly kicks ass now, then what I want most is the Axe, unequivocally, with a giant, lopsided victory.  Last year\'s big game loss made me remember that a very good team delivers in all kinds of pressure.

Welcome, Estephan.

We all would like the Axe more than anything else. I was really upset last year because I felt the coaching staff put more energy into preparing to USC, which was a national powerhouse, but was NOT our rival. Several classes during the 1990s graduated without ever losing to the 59ers.

When Tedford turned the program around and had the year of national prominence, many Cal fans said that their team would be so dominant that they wouldn\'t even think of us as rivals anymore.
