SYDNEY (AP) With the usual touristy things – Opera House, Harbour Bridge and meeting mascot-sized koalas – out of the way, the California Golden Bears and Hawaii were set to continue their practice sessions in Australia on Wednesday ahead of the opening college football game of the season.
The midday Saturday game – prime time Friday night in the United States – will be held at Sydney’s Olympic stadium, where organizers say a crowd of more than 65,000 is expected.
On Tuesday, both teams were welcomed to the city at an Opera House reception. Cal coach Sonny Dykes and Hawaii coach Nick Rolovich were presented with Malibu-sized surfboards and some of the players posed for selfies with the iconic Opera House and bridge in the background.
