New York Daily News: CAREFUL WITH CAL

The game may have lost some of its luster, but top-ranked Southern California's visit to Cal on Saturday could be dangerous. The Trojans (9-0) have played memorable games against the Bears (6-3) the past three seasons, especially two years ago in Berkeley when Cal won, 31-24, in triple-overtime. USC has won 31 straight games since. But that one loss still bothers senior quarterback Matt Leinart, who is 34-1 as a starter. "They got us on that day," he said. "It was a great game to watch. We didn't finish. We had a lot of opportunities to score a lot of points and we didn't." USC pulled a great escape last season, defeating Cal, 23-17, at the Coliseum despite being outgained 424-205.
