He makes some great, very valid points.
For me, Big Game lost a lot of it's glory due to Cal fans. There was a period where they stormed the field when they won and pulled the down goal posts. They stormed the field when they lost and pulled down goal the posts. It got so bad, mounted riot police showed up one year to prevent it. And that was at Stanford.
Walk to a game wearing red at Cal? Food thrown at you. Drunken idiots jumping in front of you screaming F-bombs, even if you had kids with you. Just an awful experience.
Hate the SEC all you want, but at least their rivalries are quite friendly. Ours, sadly, no longer.
