Quoted from the article:
"No. 13 Portland State (2-0) at AP No. 21 California (1-1), 6:10
No team has played a more impressive two games than Portland State. While teams often come back to earth after a I-A win, Portland State might have been even better in a 45-3 dismantling of Northern Colorado. The Vikings outgained the Bears by nearly 300 yards, and put the game away early with a 31-0 halftime lead. They received three first-place votes in this week’s top 25 poll, and probably deserve to be a unanimous No. 1 if they can beat California. Remember, the Golden Bears were ranked No. 9 overall to begin the season, and some pundits even penciled them in as potential participants in the BCS title game. They took a step back with a season-opening loss to Tennessee, but the Golden Bears got back on track with a 42-17 demolition of Minnesota. The tough Viking defense won’t get run off the field, but they have probably finally met their match. That doesn’t mean the Vikings can’t keep dominating I-AA teams, but they will have a tougher time against a very potent Cal offense. Prediction: Cal 34, Portland State 10"
