Not that it matters but we haven't had a 14-win season in 5 years until today, and if we win tomorrow that would be our best result since Cuonzo (2016-2017)
It really does matter…. a lot.
What we saw today is a window into the kind of team Cal can be next year. If we have a big man as good (or hopefully slightly better on offense) as Mady, Andrej ups his game and keeps dropping 20-30 points, and Wilkinson does his thing, we can get to 18-20 wins next year, March Madness in 2027.
Win 14 is psychologically important for the players, coaches and fans. Any Cal fan who tries to dump on the team for ONLY 14 and play Debbie Downer at the end of this season should just turn in his diploma and go root for Duke.
