With Marta shooting 0-7 and with 7 TO's, might want to go with Noble on the court the rest of the way.
Suarez 0-7 and Krimili 1-8 along with the usual too-many turnovers is too much to overcome.
Disappointing way to end a season
We are still in it
We need to hit shots … they are there

OMG the turnovers.
29 points through three. Just …. No words. I cant access live stats but Cal shooting percentage must be a season low.
Oniyah looks gassed. I wonder if she is ill.
If we can eliminate the turnovers in Q4, we'd have a shot.

You would be tired too if you battled a 6-6 and 6-5 big all game long
She is playing well
Cal just looks frazzled and completely unprepared on offense. Mississippi State is shooting 32 percent with 14 turnovers and leads by 14. Cal was not ready to play and thats on the coaching staff.

When she gets good position she's finishing well, even over the taller defender. But we can't even get into an offense before turning the ball over. Still time to turn it around, but has to happen completely and right away.
Krimili is just off today
I'll say.

Tough way for her to go out.
Twice as many turnovers as field goals. Tough one.
Been watching basketball for many decades and can't recall following a team that values the ball less than this team. This is on the coaching staff.
First shot she had in rhythm all night

They had 19 TO's in their last game.
You're correct. This is on the coaches.
Weill This Is What We Do Not Do. Sigh
Sorry Layshia
24 turnovers and 12 made baskets. Turnovers have been an issue throughout Charmin's tenure. So it's not just the personnel. But can't have Suarez committing three turnovers just on inbounds passes in an NCAA Tournament game on the biggest stage. Can't just run it back and act like this isn't an issue. The philosophy has to change.
I would hire Layshia as Associate Head Coach and have her specifically address the turnover issues.
25% from the floor and 14% from three and 24 turnovers against five assists. That's a recipe for getting blown out.
Still a terrific season overall and a great leap forward. Already looking forward to next season. Go Bears forever.

this program lacks fundamental passing/decision making development & the head coach has ingrained turnovers & moving screens as an acceptable part of the culture of the program
Held MSU 20 points under their average, rebounded them board for board, forced 20 turnovers
Defensively Bears had a great game

Coverage of the sights and sounds of our game by ESPN2 was abysmal.
How many times did they show the Cal Straw Hat Band? Zero times by my count.
You could barely hear them in the background.
Ms. State band had about 3 on camera appearances.
Why the obsession with $c players and fans in the stands during OUR game?

They had an in game hype man who was very good. Yeah, maybe NBA but for this game it worked
They had an extended dance off between a Cal fan and MSU fan
The Cal fan won in a landslide

Q. Along the line of building on this momentum, what's the reality of how quickly that happens? What happens next?
"The portal opens on Monday, and it's going to be crazy. There's no break, and we have to replace seven people that are graduating, essentially.
Now, we have a great freshman class coming in. We've got a McDonald's All-American coming in at the point guard position. Taylor Barnes from Texas. We're really excited about our group.
But we will be in the portal, and we'll be aggressive in the portal. I know that we'll find the pieces that we need to be back here and hopefully get even further, similar to how we did last off-season."
