I thought an interesting fact you shared with me is that they are inviting some 400 recruits tonight!

Wong graduated in 2015:

I think he’s really good on the radio broadcasts of football and basketball

he has at most 3 games, unless the post season bid comes to us. I doubt he’ll play big minutes on Saturday, and going off for 25 or more in the BWC tournament game.

He’s 91 back after last night

Rocek looked fine when he was in. He and Borra totaled less than 10 minutes. I think it was a strategy to combat their 3 shooting.

This was especially sweet to me cuz I thought the Tritons had WAY too much fun at our expense at Davis. Pope played 35 minutes in a 33 point win, and had at least 15 points well after we gave up the ghost. 3 starters with 33 plus minutes, and firing 3’s just about every time down the court early in the shot clock. Nice payback win.

That was only their second home loss; other was a 2 pointer to SDSU.

That DeBruhl miracle shot was the key. It was slipping away and that gave us some life, and caused a bit of desperation with them.

Les coached his ass off to get us to the finish line with all the fouls. Starting and playing Tamba over Niko seemed to pay dividends. They pounded it inside, shooting way fewer 3’s than at Davis.

Pepperdine is struggling also. Just fired Romar. WCC teams might hesitate to schedule us; lose and get fired!

UOP is in a horrible state right now

my logic was right; my subtraction was wrong! 40% it is

I guess I would have calculated 30%. We don’t clinch only if we lose and Beach win which is 59.6%. Correct?

We really need to be the biggest Gaucho fans around tomorrow night, just in case the Ags can't pull the upset in San Diego. That 3:00 tip off Saturday will coincide with my drive up to Davis for the Spring Game -> radio broadcast might be too much of a distraction when I'm driving the backroads through Antioch/Rio Vista/Dixon!

in the past, at least the championship game was on one of the broadcast ESPN channels. Possibly one of the semi’s also

I watched a bit of the Irvine game - they are really good. The are deeper than any other team, and have a variety of ways to score. Add in the fact that they play tough and smart, and it’s clear why they are at the top of the league. Still surprising that we beat them AND barely lost down there.

Poly will almost certainly go 0-20. Ouch

I agree with your points.

I think that Beach loss turned into 2 - a hangover vs. Riverside two days later. Win that one, and this road trip doesn’t matter. Oh well

Irvine wins big. We have to lose twice and the beach win twice for them to pass us.

I think I’m going to Henderson!

got it!

shouldn’t that be 17.5 for Sac in the ‘if you don’t count’ category ?

Ron Gould apparently is the new running back coach for the Rams. Was at San Diego State last year.

On the island, they were 12-20 from 3; last night, 6-20. That’s a big swing. Several of those were desperation heaves as the shot clock was expiring. We also held McKoy to 9 - he was clearly frustrated. I thought our two bigs and Ade did a nice job (even though DaSilva went for 20). Les was gushing about the defensive effort and smarts.

The sequence with Pepper’s four point play, followed by a 10-second violation, punctuated with another Pepper 3 was as loud as a I’ve heard the Pavillion in some time. Then Plough came out during the following time out to fire up the students, and the fun continued! Considering that came just after Hawaii’s run to cut it to 4, that sequence was amazing.

Almost as exciting was the 8-0 run, fueled by forced turnovers, to start. Team looked fresh and energized again!

Bako beat UCSD - let’s replicate that and hope Irvine beats the Beach Saturday.

we’ve beat them the last 3 times at home; here’s hoping it’s 4 after tonight.

Hope the seniors don’t come out too emotional; easy to try to do too much in your last game.
