Before Cal football started its trend of whopping Stanfurd year after year, The Daily Cal began its pigskin dynasty rocking The Stanford Daily in the annual Inkbowl.

The Inkbowl is a low-budget knockoff played at a local park near the Big Game host stadium annually. In this rough and tumble touch football game rife with tradition, the winner is awarded control of the Exacto Knife for one year. In the event of a tie, the match is settled with a boat race. In the event of no tie, the match is concluded with a boat race.

Unfortunately the Daily Cal did not win the boat race this year. In other news, the Daily Cal has won the Exacto Knife every year since 2000, including 2004 when the Inkbowl was decided in the boat race.

Could Saturday day get any better? Yes it could.
