Welcome to SCtoC's week 12 presentation of the 2016 college football season.
We have a two-day, double header. On Friday night, Nov. 18, we will follow the Eastern Washington as they visit the Rose City to face Portland St. in a Big Sky showdown. Saturday afternoon comes in the form of The Big Game between Stanford and California in the North Bay. The previews can be found below.
We've recently rolled out a couple new aspects to this thread:
The first is a link to the radio broadcasts of each game. In our game previews, this will appear in the "Radio" line. In the Other SCtoC Games section at the bottom of the page, you can click the link to the radio broadcast of that particular game.
The second comes in our poll where you, our readers have the opportunity to vote for the game(s) to be previewed for the following week. There is one Friday night game for week 13; Boise St. visits Air Force. We plan to preview that, as well as the Civil War game between Oregon and Oregon St. in Corvallis. A potential third game is listed in the poll atop the page. This week, there will be one vote. Depending upon turnout and schedule, we will look at previewing that third game.

NOTES
Stanford QB Keller Chryst is 3-0 as a starter, as the Cardinal are on a three-game winning streak. Stanford RB Christian McCaffrey has 5 rushing touchdowns in his last two road games. Cal must win this game and it's season finale next week at home against UCLA to become bowl eligible for the second year in a row Cal WR Chad Hansen needs just 21 yards receiving to top 1,000 yards this season. Last season Stanford defeated Cal, 35-22, at Stanford.
