Foreman shooting 3's is not the recipe. Reality has kicked in.

Shocking Cal didn't get a foul call there

Mobley's herky jerky ball handling style makes him tough to guard…..not to mention the 6'10" part.

SC is just a good team

We got it to 4 and then they ran off 5 points in seconds

Mobiley, Peterson and Boogie…. Tough to defend all 3

They probably penetrate better than any team in the nation. With their length, they're hard to defend in the post. When you have bigs that can handle the ball well it makes it tough on less athletic teams like Cal .

There is no shame in this game. We don't have the artillery of # 7. They have a few NBA players there and a good coach.

was 6 when GA missed the top of the key three - now 12.. sigh.
But, yeah, SC is a pretty darn good team.

Mathematically to win, just shoot 3's. No coach ever goes kamikaze like that.
5.5 spread, eh?

Both would have changed the outcome. No blame on Grant though.

I think this is the announcer that usually (used to?) says "Kale," but he is the absolute worst

We're going to lose this game,

But it showed me that we are a lot better than days gone by.

Again we're short-handed. But I'm still on board

Greg Papa has the trademark on "Kale."

Maybe gangsters want Kale to cover and a text was sent to the SC bench.

Based on USC not playing for weeks. Yet no rust nor let down in fitness. So double digits the likely result but loving the late game heroics by the Bears!

Also, how many muscles have you pulled this evening?! Lol

Bears played a legit # 7 tough. Well done. Petersen reminds me of the first time I saw Brent Barry as a Beaver. After a couple of minutes of viewing you think: complete package.

14 point loss but in some ways it makes me feel better about Cal

SC team can go deep in the tournament

Excellent effort. Though it didn't happen tonight, there will be a couple of games this season in which a really good team is having an off night and the Bears will scratch out a W.

yeah, not to mention his long range shooting too

but the player who really is herky jerky is Peterson, although he would often drag his pivot foot when doing that

I hate it when players do that herky jerky thing, and then step through and under hands the shot... seems so undignified for a D1 basketball player, but it's so hard to defend when that same player can step back, or hit that fade away shot, and he can certainly do that

Back from the Haas...

Alajiki was dressed (at least in the first half), but had an ice bag on his knee, as if something happened in warm-ups.

This was a game we could've won, if we had gotten a few rolls and defended the paint a little better. But we didn't and U$C has better players, so...

Still, we didn't play poorly.

If Brown could score.....

Not a huge scoring night for Joel Brown. Goose egg.

Why didn't we press harder in the last 2 minutes? Maybe force a TO, maybe USC misses a free throw. Don't let them run off 29 seconds then get a good shot.

If they have a height advantage on us, do we have a corresponding quickness advantage, and if so, shouldn't we exploit that by having a few guys attack the basket to draw fouls? You would think Joel, Shepherd and Celestine could drive and get calls.


I was there-they had a height advantage plus a quickness advantage plus a big edge in "hops". We played very well considering how "out athleted" we were.
