A national holiday in sports will be celebrated Sunday for the Super Bowl. Former Beavers OL Kyle DeVan is the starting RG for the Indianapolis Colts. If you haven’t read his remarkable story, yet, check it out here.
The gymnastics team competes at California at 2 p.m. on Sunday. Here’s the meet preview. It should be an easy win for the Beavers. They return home Friday night against Arizona.
Check out this Q&A with gymnastics phonem Makayla Stambaugh with the Pac-10 here. Does anyone else think her answer to who she would like to be for a day strange? Think about it.
The No. 20-ranked wrestling team continued its stellar season with a win over Fullerton on Friday, and another one over No. 16 Cal Poly on Saturday.
There are two more road duals next week at Boise State and Oklahoma to end the regular season. Then it’s on to the Pac-10s and NCAA meet.
The men’s golf team had a nice holiday weekend in Hawaii to kick off the season, but only finished 12th in the tournament.
And since it is the Super Bowl day, here are two my favorite halftime shows with Kiss below and Aerosmith and Britney on top. I nearly picked the Janet Jackson incident, but I couldn’t take that much of Justin Timberlake. Britney counteracted him with Aerosmith.
OK, here are a few more since I was looking around. This one was an important and serious one, back when the world needed the U.S. to get back on its feet to protect them.
One more classic to get you in the festive mood.

Come on Clif the best halftime show ever was last year's Springsteen performance, no contest, not even close

Cliff,
I agree Makayla Stambaugh 's trading places comment is a bit strange. I think she was focused on the baby and not the implications it may have held. She'd probably be mortified if she did. Is she from the south by chance?

Springsteen was good. Kiss and Petty just rocked. U2 was good, but the setting was awesome.
Aerosmith and Britney are Aerosmith and Britney. Michael Jackson was good, but I couldn't glorify him for his personal life. Prince was good. The Who was pretty good this year.
Overall, guitar rock rules.
