Its reporters gave their perspective on the best individual seasons against the spread for each team, using research from ESPN. You be surprised at what they learned.

2020 PLAYBOOK Football Preview Guide magazine reports: Yes, California won 8 games last season for the first time under head coach Justin Wilcox.

New offensive coordinator Bill Musgrave brings 20 years of coaching experience, including OC duties with five different NFL teams. Still, it works only if the defense snaps back. The good news is the Golden Bears improved from No. 129 to No. 14 in the nation in Turnovers Lost last season. |
