2006 California Golden Bears Holiday Bowl Championship Ring
This 2006 California Golden Bears Holiday Bowl Championship ring belonged to starting wide receiver DeSean Jackson, one of the most exciting players in Cal football history.
The Golden Bears capped off their 2006 season with a dominant performance in the Pacific Life Holiday Bowl, defeating No. 21 Texas A&M 45–10 on December 28, 2006, at Qualcomm Stadium in San Diego. The victory gave Cal a 10–3 final record and capped a season in which the Golden Bears earned a share of the Pac-10 Championship.
Jackson started at wide receiver in the Holiday Bowl and led Cal in receiving with 5 receptions for 81 yards. He finished his outstanding sophomore season with 59 receptions for 1,060 yards and 9 receiving touchdowns, establishing himself as one of the premier playmakers in college football.
Following his career at Cal, Jackson was selected by the Philadelphia Eagles in the second round of the 2008 NFL Draft, 49th overall. He went on to play 15 seasons in the NFL, earning three Pro Bowl selections and finishing his career with 641 receptions, 11,263 receiving yards and 58 receiving touchdowns. Jackson played for the Philadelphia Eagles, Washington, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Los Angeles Rams, Las Vegas Raiders and Baltimore Ravens.
The ring features a stone-covered face surrounding the classic Cal script logo, with “HOLIDAY BOWL” and “CHAMPIONS” displayed along the sides. One shank features “JACKSON” above a Cal football helmet, while the opposite shank commemorates the Pacific Life Holiday Bowl and Cal's commanding 45–10 victory over Texas A&M.
The ring is a size 9.75, weighs 34.2 grams and was manufactured by Jostens. It is stamped © “J” in a diamond and YLTM.
