Krimili! Stanford scared of the three and it opens up a lane for her!

And Bears can't corral the missed free throw. 11 seconds to go. Stanford ball.

I saw the inbounds ball - saw it deflect - saw Williams diving for the ball and the ACCNX feed went dark!
Glad to see Cal hung on!

I predict that Cal will squeak out a victory, 75-72, over arch-rival Stanford in Palo Alto tomorrow night. The Bears have lost to the Cardinal ten consecutive seasons in Maples Pavillion. Cal has not swept the season series from Stanford in forty years.

Stanford has only lost once in ten games this season at home. They will not be easy to beat there. The Cardinal also was embarrassed by the Bears in Berkeley in a 20-point loss and will want revenge. Their current lineup has two new underclassmen as starters now.

Several stats suggest that this should be a close game. Both teams score 75 points per game. Both grab approximately 40 rebounds per contest. Both lineups are loaded with three-point shooters. Cal averages 9.6 to Stanford's 8.4 treys. In Berkeley, the Bears went off for 18 three-point baskets to the Cardinal's 9.

The reason that I like Cal's chances is that Stanford does not cause many turnovers. They have forced a dozen per game on average. In the Bear's blowout win earlier this season, the Cardinal only caused nine TOs. None of the Cal starters had more than 2. The Bears also dominated the assists category with 20 to the Cardinal's 10. Cal outrebounded Stanford, too, 43-38, which is a rare occurrence. Have the Bears had single digit turnovers in any other games this year?

The one new factor that the Cal defense needs to prepare for is the emergence of Santa Clara junior transfer shooting guard, Tess Heal. The Aussie averaged 20 points per game for the Broncos. She seemed reluctant to take many shots early this season and was trying to find her role and fit in. She now is the team's instant offense sixth "man". The reason that Stanford defeated Wake Forest was Tess Heal. She led the team in scoring with 24 points. Heal was "on fire", hitting six consecutive treys. The team wants her to shoot now. Tess started the game at Cal and only accounted for two points. I can almost guarantee that the Aussie will want to make a statement tomorrow night.

What a massive screwup by the ACCN. Broadcast dies in the final seconds of a close game?

Same with me…. What a crazy time to lose the feed

I didn't know who won as I assumed ball went out of bounds so Stanford would have a couple seconds for a buzzer beater

Anyone who went to game…. What happened???

Cal tried very hard to give the game back to Stanford. Thank goodness that my prediction came true:

Cal 75, Stanford 72!!!

Ionna Krimili & Kayla Williams played their hearts out and saved the game!

I assumed Furd was gonna get the ball back with 2 seconds or so left, did we save it before the ball went out?

What timing for a technical difficulty. A rather ugly game, but I'll take it.

Palms of Cardiac Victory! (And as BearBloke points out, Cal led almost all the way.)

I hope Jayda is all right. God, that was a long game; both teams must be exhausted.

Nice job on the game feed ACC... And the announcers.

Was that a basketball game or a hockey game? Stanford got away with a lot of fouls in the last 2 quarters while Cal got called for a lot less contact.
ncbears
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Cal was called for 22 fouls (including the technical) Stanford was called for 21 fouls
And yet Stanford took 31 free throws to Cal's 14!
Cal did commit 18 turnovers to Stanford's 17, and although Cal was credited with only 4 turnovers in the fourth, it certainly seemed worse! (Cal committed 6 turnovers in the third).
