In addition, Cobbs was really off, tonight. He had some unbelievable bad decisions. Remind me a lot of Randle, tonight, before Monty taught him how to play the game and Cal took the PAC by storm. In Monty I trust!

Go BEARS! BEAT The South Campus!

Maybe worst reffing job I’ve ever seen in person, for both sides The no call on Jorge’s late 2nd half drive was as bad as the obvious charge/forearm pushoff by BSmith not called in the first half; both coaches are sure to file complaints or whatever. Yet no technicals were called, it would appear the refs agreed that they were terrible?

A win is a win is win… and the conference title is right there for the taking. Let’s hope this group has what it takes to get to the mountaintop. I think if Solomon comes back healthy and effective (~7 and ~7 with 2 blocks in ~20 mins) then this team can do it with a coach like MONTY at the helm. Go Bears! Beat ucla.

Bears need to raise their game and become a better TEAM ASAP.
Ucla coming in Sat and that is a huge game for this season. In every big game so far this year we have not gotten job done. Hope our Bears are ready and make it happen.
Go Bears!

Overall, I am very happy with the scrappy win. Can’t win by 20 every night…

In 14 games, this was only our second close game. Need to learn how to win those anyhow.

Not good in a conference game at home.
