Cal Football 2024 Season Prediction with a Special Guest

Cal is Coming Off a Disappointing Season

The California Golden Bears football team finished the 2023 season with a disappointing record of 5-7. The Bears lost their last four games of the season, including a 35-14 loss to rival Stanford in the Big Game.

The 2024 schedule is not easy. Cal opens the season with a road game against the defending national champions, the Georgia Bulldogs. The Bears also have to play road games against USC, Utah, and Washington.

Can Cal Turn Things Around in 2024?

Despite the tough schedule, there are reasons to be optimistic about Cal's chances in 2024.

Justin Wilcox is a Good Coach

Justin Wilcox is entering his seventh season as Cal's head coach. He has a record of 39-39 at Cal, including a 10-3 record in 2019.

Cal Has Some Talented Players

Cal has some talented players on both sides of the ball. Quarterback Jack Plummer is a rising star, and he has a number of talented receivers to throw to, including Jeremiah Hunter and J. Michael Sturdivant.

The defense is led by linebacker Jackson Sirmon, who was named to the All-Pac-12 team in 2023.

Cal Has a Favorable Schedule

Cal's schedule is not easy, but it is favorable in some ways.

• The Bears have just three road games against ranked opponents.
• Cal has a bye week before the Big Game.
