The list posted by Mick says Stanford and California have played 120 times, while the NCAA's list says 119 times. Both Stanford's and California's records agree with the NCAA's figure of 119 games, with this year being the 120th Big Game. Whoever compiled the 120 games on Mick's list may have got to 120 by adding the unofficial game in 1918, which neither Stanford nor California counts. Or maybe they counted this year already. . . .
