Aimaq is gone so we're not scoring in the post. But we're defending, scrapping for rebounds, lethal on the perimeter, and taking care of the ball. After being down 20. If this is Madsen ball, I'm here for it (except the falling 20 points behind)
Fouled out with about 3 minutes left. Only played 24 minutes. Colorado center pushed him around and shut him down. Tough night inside aside from rebounds.
Great win.
This was our best win in a long time. What an awesome game.
I think the UCLA win was better. We have to stop giving teams 10 point handicaps.
The Bears have been ballin’ since about the 10 minute mark at USC. Great win Bears!
I know it's late but I hope Erlyn Madsen drops by to celebrate with us.
Asked below what this program’s identity is going to be…think we know now: mental toughness.
Team is learning to battle.
Program defining win tonight, folks. To quote Dan Beluomini: “How do ya like it?”
Jaylon Tyson went supernova like he was posing for the Webb Space Telescope. I think he's found his home.
shout out to Larson
shout out to Grant who played more aggressively than he has in a while 4 rebounds and 3-5 shooting including 2-3 from downtown
We were undersized inside but not out fought.
So many haters. Love reading the beginning comments to the end. The bear doesn’t quit, the bear doesn’t die! Believe!
I gladly admit my mistake. This second half is how I imagined Madsen ball could be.
NOT IN OUR HAAS!
Big win
BOOM!
“Randolph…Randolph.”
“Mortimer, we’re back.”
I knew it all along.
COME BACK BEARS! Woo
I called it first!
Oh no oh no oh, oh yesss! Wide open three is bricked.
Phew….
Phew phew...
Buffs = Storm Troopers
Is that the Da Silva from Stanford?
Yup, believe so.
no I think it's his brother
YOU KNOW IT
THE BEAR DOES NOT QUIT!
What a comeback! Seal it up!
We escaped the press!
I almost turned the game off at halftime. Glad I didn’t.
I got a “close game alert” and wuZ like wut? And tuned back in
BANG! Another phenomenal drive by Tyson!
TAKE IT TO THE HOOP!
Finish them off Bears!

What happened to Aimaq? I just tuned in for the last few minutes.
Fouled out with about 3 minutes left. Only played 24 minutes. Colorado center pushed him around and shut him down. Tough night inside aside from rebounds.
man, this is crazy! first, UCLA, now this? I gave up when they went down by 20.
Simpson is out of control
Win or lose, I love the fight!
Tyson doing some good work directing his screeners.
TYSON!!!!
Cal with the great run ... dumb inbound unforced turnover and a easy basket for colorado
I've been critical of some of the calls on Cal, but that was a quick 5 second violation, and I don't think I've seen that all season
Our defense has intensified and it's making a difference.
Bad pass turnover...argh
Bears on a run, but how long can Larson defend their center? He must be double Larson's weight and taller
missing Okofor!
Larson can defend as long as he has fouls to give. He's not going to score much, though.
Only 6 points behind now. 10 minutes to go. Lots of time.
I won't get my hopes up but the score is prettier when we hit 3s.
Aimaq is a poor defender
This is a game where Grant needs to step up (he's 2-3 including 1 three). He needs to defend better and grab more rebounds at 6-9
otherwise we will have to continue to jack up 3s
Curtis helped us defensively
Can Cal go on one of our 2nd half runs to make a game of it?
We are going to turn this around.
Reading through this thread the morning after—everything before your post was negative, but you called it! What an inspired team. Go Bears.
Looking forward to no Cone or Aimaq. Always a painful watch
Simply not competitive from the opening tip.
Night, Bear fans. Until tomorrow.
Come Back Man!
I did. Took a little breather to settle down, then returned. Didn’t want to jinx by posting.
What’s this program’s identity going to be under Madsen?
We still don’t have an answer to that yet.
Gonna build around Brown/Newell/Celestine/Curtis.
Ugh another talent gap game. Time to reset expectations for this one.
Ha, Fardaws can’t guard anyone
is that breaking news?
Not a bit.
But every now and then, you see just how poor a defender he is. The Montana State big, this guy tonight. Zoiks.
Curtis a big body - needs to work on post moves.
Pathetic with the ball. So careless. Can’t make a shot.
Yuck.
Madsen has a lot of work to do.
the difference in athleticism is staggering. Not sure Madsen can fix that.
Gonna have to recruit and develop. Can’t live in the portal.
Aimaq was so overrated coming into the season. Below average power 5 big
Zero chance to play in the League.
Been wondering since Opening Day how he won DPOY, let alone twice.
I don't proactively follow the schedule. I am usually always "surprised" by WFC hours before or after the game starts.
