In this game, Bill Walsh had left the 49ers and returned to be the Head Coach at Stanford. Stanford had a great season going 10 - 2. The Cardinal won this Big Game easily 41 - 21. Cal opened the scoring with Doug Brien kicking a field goal to give Cal a 3 - 0 1st quarter lead. Stanford responded by scoring 34 unanswered points. QB Steve Stenstrom threw a 46 yard TD pass to Justin Armour. Glyn Milburn returned a punt 76 yards for another Stanford score. With the game all but decided, Cal finally showed some life in the 4th quarter. The Bears forced a Cardinal fumble and Cal QB Dave Barr hit Sean Dawkins with a 50 yard TD pass. Two successful onside kicks helped Cal to score two more TDs, Barr to Dawkins from 14 yards out and Barr to Mike Caldwell from 9 yards out. However, it was too little too late. Stanford went onto play in the Blockbuster Bowl on New Years Day and pounded Penn State 24 - 3. Any questions let me know.
