I have a different take on the game having attended in person. It was a super entertaining game. The student body turned out. The alumni turnout was still sad.
I don’t understand why students are shoved to upper reaches of one end and left there. After halftime, students should be allowed to move down to fill up the arena. And why was the band moved over from behind the basket?
I understand the article, But when you play a team that have lost like this they are the most dangerous team to play. Miami was only two seasons from being in the final foreign had plenty of talent. Cal allowed them to hang around and it almost cost him.They began to understand that they could play with cal. Once you give a team like this hope it is hard to shut them down. The kale Gotham at the end, but Cal finished them. Watch Miami start winning now.
Wilkinson's game was one of the best I've seen in over 70 years, and I saw win the NCAA championship game in 1959 when they had Darrel Imhoff and Bill McClintock.
Miami is the worst 3 point shooting team in the ACC and look what they did against the Bears. Against Furd they only made 3. It was a "freak" performance from them last night. I doubt that they will hit that many in any game the rest of the season. That's why the game was so close.
Fr dude. Wilkinson will be down right SCARY next year. I think he could end up being a top 10 player in college basketball if he locks in during the offseason and applies his experience. In my opinion he is the far more exciting prospect and player than Stojakovich, even though I still love Andrej. If we were to keep both and add one more high impact scoring transfer on the wing we could make some REAL noise
Good teams win ugly sometimes. I’ll take it. The team is clearly improved over a few weeks ago and we have a chance for more good wins ahead. Wilkerson is a beast and if this a sign of who Nadsen recruits and coaches then we are in good shape going forward! Go Bears.

Is this something that the #calgorithm could help with? Let’s move students closer to the floor all around Haas!

Having guards who make their free throws is a huge asset, especially in close games.
Announcers said Stoja had a "sore hip". Was that what kept him out of this game (vs flu as reported previously), and how bad is it?
It was odd…
Illness was last game for FSU…now it’s hip for Miami, and he’ll miss the next few games as well.
Remember the last guy to miss a game due to illness? 😬
I do. ;-)
Oh man, you already wrote that, didn't you? And here I thought I was so cool.😂
I think you are cool regardless.

Miami’s length was their advantage over the Bears. They some good players. Maybe they used this game to figure out how to win more games.
Cal’s D, especially 3P, is usually the tonic for opponent’s winning more games…gotta clean up the rotations.

This is a game we definitely lose last year.
Close win but progress
I don't know why the team decided not to play basketball in the 2nd half. I'm just glad they decided to play it in OT.
Keeping Wilkinson and Stoja is vital for next season.

100%. He’s probably gonna be a 7-figure NIL player next season somewhere - hopefully it’s in Berkeley (Scott Ostler can GTFOH)! ;-)
JW has level of athleticism not seen in Berkeley since Jaylen Brown. Love J-Tyson, but he doesn’t have the bounce and twitch of Wilkinson.

...and in Cal's case, not so good teams win ugly sometimres.
I’ll take it. Wins are hard to get.Petritis needs to work on free throws. It almost cost us the game.
It reminded me a lot of the Cal/Miami football game just in the upside down.
