The TV contract of the Pac 12 requires each team to host at least one weeknight game during the season and it was Cal’s turn last Saturday against the Oregon Ducks that turned into a longer night than expected a double overtime win for Cal 52-49 for their first Friday night home game. This will be the schedule rotation running every couple of years. Berkeley is a city of rules and regulations and there are no freeways near downtown Berkeley or the Cal campus.

The City of Berkeley and it’s residents make sure that Cal does not have these night games with permanent lights as this was done with temporary generators. The neighbors want to also keep the noise down at night who could blame them because they must’ve heard all of the celebrating by the fans at Memorial Stadium when Cal sophomore linebacker Jordan Kunaszyk intercepted Oregon quarterback Justin Herbert’s pass and took a knee to end the game in the second overtime.
