Cal only needs one more win to be eligible for the bowl season. If they get it, this will be a great first year in the ACC. The team got back into the game after losing four games in a row with two good wins. Their next game is against Stanford, which they can win, and then they have to go to SMU.
The Orange has already won six games, but last week they lost a tough game at Boston College. Now they need to make this their best season under new head coach Fran Brown.
It has a chance to make a big splash in the game against Miami if it pulls this off and beats UConn next week. The team is playing with bowl-house money, so a loss would be bad. However, they have already lost three of their last four games.

Syracuse vs Cal: Who Will Win?
The Cal offense is clicking now. In the win over Wake Forest a few weeks ago, they threw for 500 yards, which was the season high. It is been getting better over the last four games.
Syracuse’s offense can keep up, but their run defense has been bad, and they will have trouble stopping the Bears’ midrange passing game. Cal will be able to go to bowl games for the second year in a row.
