An 0-12 team doesn't need Monty and Ted coming up with scenarios how UTA can close the gap. F you guys!
Remember, their job (and perhaps their their primary responsibility) is to make sure viewers don't switch channels.
Fire Knowlton!
Fire Fox!
Put Wilcox in a hot seat!

We are playing hungry, like a team that hasn't won a game all season. Oh, wait a minute…

Somewhere Wyking is breathing a sigh of relief. His -16 fallen dominoes loss record is still firmly entrenched in the Cal record book and it will take the jaws of life to extract it.

They couldn't stop Brown. Most teams can.
Go Bears!

We do have 18 conference games remaining. But I think we beat Stanford at least once.

LOL! Is that from Punch Out? Looks a little like it, but don't recognize him as any of the boxers from the original.

Man UTA is really, really bad. I'm surprised they beat USF.
USF is destroying the #25 Sun Devils, 50-23 at halftime.

UTA beat USF. Bears beat UTA. If USF beats Sun Devils, Bears are better than Sun Devils. Right?

again UTA fan here . I told you we were bad, but to be honest you guys really looked good tonight. I looked at your noncon schedule it is a really tough schedule. I think that schedule explains your record

With all due respect, we didn't look that good today and our schedule featured a lot of lame teams and we lost to every single one of them. No knock on UT-A: they've won four games and this was our first.

Back from the game and the storming of the court! Was that Shocky1 in the electric green shoes?

I was rooting for the Golden Bears to win this one and we didn't disappoint. Kudos to whomever scheduled Texas-Arlington, possibly the only team in the land that shoots worse than we do. No matter, a win is a win! Happy for the guys!

Go Bears!

1. Matchups
2. Who's having a good shooting night (tonight USF 57%, ASU 28%; threes USF 52%, ASU 19%)

You greatly underestimate Fox's chances.

We just got through the cupcake OOC schedule 1-12 and now re-enter PAC-12 play with 19 games against teams much better than UT Arlington.

Since we are already 0-2 in PAC-12 play, Fox's record 19 losses to PAC-12 opponents in 2020-21 is not safe. We will need 2 wins , Wyking's 16 game PAC-12 losing streak is not safe. The critical game will be Oregon State at Haas on January 22, 2023.

But tonight we celebrate!

Maybe Shocky1's presence was the difference maker. Monster win!

joel brown getting into the paint at will two games in a row, and finishing ... plus his standard lock down defense

the players were getting Lars the ball without standing and staring him down (except once) and he dominated the paint

2K was a stat sheet stuffer with 16 points, including 1-1 from 3 and 9-11FT, 6 rebounds, FOUR ASSISTS. He exited Haas high fiving everyone, including two people high in the stands. Bro has a lot of length and hops as he showed with his two blocks.

Roberson shows he can jump out of the gym, and went all air with bad intentions, only to get fouled. 2K saw him and said I can do that (but same result)

Robinson thought he was in the RSF and dribbled for 60 seconds with multiple behind the back, between his leg dribbles. That ain't going to work vs D1 defenders, but did manage to avoid a turnover, and later made a stumbling buzzer-beating shot.

freshmen walk on Jack McCloskey looked like a dear in the headlights when coach said he was going in. At least 5 players talked to him getting him ready for battle. The first time he touched the ball, he used a screen, got into the paint made a nice inside pass for the assist. He officially has a positive stat!

The Shockster (and his daughter) were in the Haas, and as promised he stormed the court and congratulated 7 foot Lars for his 8-10 17 points. Security nabbed him, but instead of kicking and screaming, the Shockster looked like he was inviting her out for dinner. He's a lover not a fighter.

the players were having fun today, with smiles all around. Christmas will be a little more Merry for the players

Do you concur that Askew should work harder trying to maximize the contributions of his teammates?

or…..

Do you think it is a situation that his teammates shut down and stand down and watch him do the scoring and don't put themselves in the position to let Askew help them score?

or….

A combination of the two?

or….

Is there simply no connection between Askew's absence yesterday and the team's performance?

I think there's a connection between our team's performance and the quality of the opposition.

I don't recall us winning any games when Askew was out due to COVID-19 protocols. That said, the coaches may be allowing Brown to do more when Askew is not playing. If so, I'd like to see that continue when Askew is playing.

Also some teams respond with a great game after a key player goes down. It doesn't usually last.

As is often the case, when you outmatch the other team, playing looks playful and easy. I still celebrate the break of the streak, but you can't judge our ability off a cupcake win.
