man, that was some game! All I can say is good thing SC sucks. Haas sure is a great venue when there's something to be excited about.

The golden beers are starting to win the tough games now. They are learning how to win. My prediction is when I get to the tournament cow will be a tough out. They may not have the best record when they get there. But they are going to be battle tested and they are going to be hungry. Body the end of the season. I don't think anybody in the pack twelve is going to want to play Cal.

Wouldn't be CAL without making it more stressful than it had to be. But, that's 2 games in a row with big hyped home crowds and 2 THRILLING Ws!

The Bears are finally figuring out how to win close games. How many OT games have they played now? It was a blast!!!

WHEEEWWW!!!! Good win. We are light years away from where Fox had us. Great to see Haas jumping with students and fans. Far cry from the last three years when people were wearing bags on their heads. GO BEARS!!!!!

6-6 in conference. UCLA looks tougher these days but it should be a good matchup.

Ugh...good fight by the bears but man..we don't play defense real well (hot take)

Again, Collier was on a minutes restriction. He’s probably played 40 minutes already.

Is collier ACTUALLY getting fouled or just falling down cause he's living at the free throw line and they don't all look like fouls to me

Expand full comment
OC Bear's avatar

he is leaning into the defender with his shoulder, imitating contact

Expand full comment
Jimmy Chitwood's avatar

He’s lowering the shoulder and initiating contact.

Bears are not being disciplined. KK has leaned into him in response multiple times.

He's explosive but they aren't calling those soft ones for us

Our guys look over matched guarding him but ticky tak nothing fouls. And nothing on the other end other than a couple for Jalen tyson

OC Bear's avatar

our guys are trying to get around the defender; only Tyson goes right into them

Cone’s dribble penetration is useless cause he’s no threat to finish against this front line. Just got to let Tyson win or lose it for us now.

How are we in OT and SC still only has 6 fouls. Awful officiating.

Let’s see if they can show some heart here. But they’re completely gassed. This could go sideways quick.
