California is taking the long way to UCLA this week.
In an effort to save money and help ease the school's budget concerns, the Golden Bears will ride buses rather than fly to Pasadena for Saturday's game against the Bruins at the Rose Bowl.
Cal has taken the bus for road games in the past, most notably the 60-minute cross-Bay trip to Stanford every two years.
But this is the first time in years the Golden Bears will take a trip this long nearly 400 miles on a bus.
