This is a huge rivalry game, as Cal heads to Stanford to take on the Cardinal. Cal has sure come up on the short end of the stick more often than not in this rivalry at 12-22-1 SU in the last 35 meetings. That is somewhat misleading, however, as the last 35 games have shown a Stanford victory margin of just 3.8 points per game. The bottom line is that these games are played with a great deal of passion and intensity, and not only have the games been close overall, but they have produced an average of just 47.8 combined points over the 35 years. I would certainly not expect anything different here for this one, as when the line has been 12 or fewer points either way, the scoring has actually been even lower. Cal has played seven straight to the UNDER vs. a winning team, and eight of their last nine to the UNDER in conference play overall. Stanford is now 44-21-1 to the UNDER in their last 66 following a loss. Take the UNDER in this one.
