BERKELEY, Calif. (AP) — The nuances of Stanford’s Big Game rivalry against California are still a bit new for Cardinal quarterback Andrew Luck.
That was evident when he showed up at the luncheon kicking off the week wearing Golden Bears colors — a blue dress shirt and blue and gold tie — because he has few options when it comes to dress clothes.
It’s an excusable oversight considering Luck grew up in Europe and Texas, where the rivalry between the Pac-10’s two Bay Area schools doesn’t get top billing.
Now that Luck has seen the passion he wants to enjoy a win when the teams meet again Saturday in Berkeley.
