    This team will struggle to win 3 games on the road in pac12 play. As long as they can hold serve on home court the ncaa is still within site, however things are not looking great.

    We out rebounded a team 42-29 and lost.

    I was thinking 3 road wins was crazy, but after looking at the schedule, you might be correct. I think 4 or 5 is more likely, but 3 could happen. Sunday is a big game. I'm only hoping for a tourney birth. Hopefully we can win a game or two once we get there. We all see this team's limitations. They are one really good player away.

    The offense was fairly good against Cal. The defense was not. They hit a couple of tough shots, but they also had way too many open looks and layups. We also need to force more than 4 TO's too.

    It wasn't all bad. Rebounding had been an issue, so 42-29 is something to be pleased about. I just wish we escaped with a W It's disappointing, but not a huge deal. A win against Stanford would be big because home games against WSU and the Oregon schools follow. I don't think it's very likely though.
    Minor bowls and just happy to make the NCAA tournament.

    The Marinerization is complete.
    That would be no bowl games and no march madness.

    I can't belive it has been 14 years the last time M's made the postseason.

    It's a lot harder to make the MLB playoffs than a bowl game or March Madness.

    that one stretch to begin the 2nd half when they looked clueless on offense was the killer.
    It certainly isn't as bad a loss as the Stony Fucking Brook embarassment

    It's a pretty bad loss when you consider the stats, how cal is decimated with players being out, and we're at full strength. You should not get outscored by 11 in the second half when crushing another team in rebounds. 4 TO's is a joke.

    In general though, this isn't a game we should expect to win. Cal isn't horrid and we rarely win in the bay. A split would be great, then hold serve at home. That being said, we can not shoot our normal 3-pt % if we're going to only create 4 TO's. It's amazing how inept this team is at shooting

    FO, Boobie. Each year is different. You can't expect a championship with Shawn Kemp Jr, Jarrard Jarreau, and Andrew Andrew Andrews as three of your starters. That is especially true for a Romar coached team.

    Making my point for me.
