Am I being too much of a Pollyanna to hope that a massive blowout could be followed by a tarmac-ing tonight? A USAF guy would know how to execute that, right?

There is no tarmac tonight. There is a bus to the hotel. Practice tomorrow for the game at #4 UCLA Saturday where the crowd will have their first chance to let us have it for whining to the Regents about how unfair it is that they hit invited to a viable conference and we didn't.

Tarmac on Sunday? Please!

Mark Fox run practices are brutal. He brags about it, but won't let anyone witness it.

At this point, I just don't want them to score twice as many as us. Because, pride. Would "happily" settle for 79-50.

We've played a fair amount in the 2nd half with Bowser at PG, three forwards, and a center. The combination isn't looking that bad and Bowser is the only Bear in double figures (plus 3 assists).

Should get to 50. Though we are currently #361 out of 363 in the country in points per game, we will likely drop lower no matter what.

Brown comes back in and promptly fouls out.

Brown fouls out. Clayton out. Askew out. Hyder out (remember him?). Not trying to manufacture excuses, but this has been a helluva season.

They hire the right guy though, and this feeling of utter hopelessness will disappear.

I tried to get you 24.5 but couldn't. You got lucky.

Hoping now for 99-60.

We got to 60! Held them to less than 100!

So what do you think for the Fox postgame? Defense? Injuries and foul trouble?

I think that's a risk Andy is willing to take. His grandkids will die of old age before Cal exacts revenge. If Monty was coaching our opponent, he would beat us by 100 on general principle.

Now he gets to go home to Mrs. Enfield. Somewhere tonight Oskie is in a dark corner sobbing on his J. Kidd/Bobby Hurley SI cover.

Will not watch, nor read posts about what Fox says, postgame. Will leave that for the masochists.

For multiple reasons, I'd like Andy to experience the shock and disgust of coming home and finding me with Mrs. Enfield.

It would be so Cal: Stanford stuns UCLA, UCLA takes it out on Cal two days later.

I would be remiss in my duties if I did not point out that:

Okofor continues to make plays. Some are off broken plays but he turns them into baskets. Also like his 15 footer when he has space and takes his time

He'll improve his defensive fundamentals with a year under his belt

Grant also had a solid game with the monster poster dunk over usc's 7 foot shot blocker

Bowser wasn't efficient but continues to show he is a shooter from deep and from mid range. He has the perfect size for a shooting guard

Somehow we out rebounded them, including 15 offensive rebounds

Petersen is such a tough guard with his herky jerkey up and under or long arm floater or finger rolls. The most unorthodox player in the conference and when he's hitting 3s is unstoppable

Not to get too far ahead of things, but the guys I'm hoping the new coaching staff can retain are Okafor and Newell.

Celestine, Alajiki and Askew also are nice players for supporting roles if we bring in a couple of top players.
