With conference realignment shaking up the sport this season, two surprising additions to the ACC are California and Stanford, long-standing staples of the Pac-12.In Week 13 of the 2024 season, the two West Coast teams renewed their heated rivalry—this time in ACC play—when the Cardinal traveled to Berkeley to face the Golden Bears.

After weeks of largely unfamiliar ACC fare, the Bears meet century-old rival Stanford on Saturday at Memorial Stadium in the 127th Big Game. Cal and Stanford first met back in 1892 in San Francisco — 41 years before the Bay Bridge connected the East Bay to the city.
