I have it available as a streaming option on my Roku. Will cost $12.99 for one month. No free trial being offered that I have seen. I have also downloaded their app on my IPad. Same price there.

Vs UCLA it was their elite center and shooter (and freshman guard)

Vs USC it is their elite wings/guards

Can't imagine we can defend them

The question is will our offense look better?

Since this is an exhibition I doubt we see Sheppard

I just paid the $13. Couldn't find any coupon codes for monthly, but if you are student, alum, faculty of a big 10 school, or a first responder and you want a year of it there are discounts for that.

Is Watkins not playing?

I just signed into the B1G+ network and did not see the game listed on their facing screen. I then went to "Schools" and "USC" and was able to find it that way. So it will be there if you look for it.

What is the exact issue with Mjracle?

An Instagram post from yesterday showed the Cal women as they exited the team bus and headed into their hotel in Los Angeles.

Mjracle was shown in a video walking (no limp like she had at UCLA game), smiling and carrying her Cal duffle bag just like the other players.

Will we see her play today? Not sure. But limited minutes might be possible.

Makes sense.

Looking for our defense to show more in this game. The offense can come later.

Their quickness and athleticism will wear us down. But solid defensive effort in the first quarter - USC 14, Cal,10. Do hope that Dowell will become a little less erratic.

Decent first half, loved to see some of our 3s falling!

A lot of progress versus the UCLA game. Good to see. Our centers will not be great. But Barnes and Russell have been doing some solid rebounding.

Cal outpacing USC on three pointers.... 5-12 vs 1-7.

Shannon Dowell is by far the fastest player on the team. Miracle Sheppard is probably next and is not playing.

The three top Trojan players [ Ju Ju, Jazzy & Saniya Hall] are all shooting 50% to 67% from the field. Cal has nobody that can jump with them when they elevate for a shot.

Well Cal seems to be doing pretty well given that eh? 71-75 with seconds left.

Darn, had a bunch of opportunities there to tie the game at 73. Love our offensive rebounding... but you have to convert one of those opportunities!

Cal 73 USC 75 with 11 seconds...

This game was SO much better than the UCLA exhibition.

76-78 Cal "loses" but really, that seems like a lot of good things for the Bears.

19-21 from the line. I REALLY like that.

Three things I really liked in this one:
1. Four quarters of relentless effort from everybody.
2. Barnes becoming more aggressive on offense.
3. Zara Russell showing that she can be a positive contributor.

And this was a road game making it that much more challenging.

The team should feel really good about this effort. Lots of positives to build off of.

I don't know that I've ever been more pleased with a Cal loss. Well worth the 12 bucks.

Here's a YouTube link to full game, not sure how long it will remain online as it's not "official"

This outstanding effort was against the projected #3 team in the country according to the AP poll.

A real boost to the Bears' confidence going forward. Now, hurry back, Mjracle. Go Bears!
