4 points out of pepper and manjon. Murphy and Angiwe with 2 fouls (they look to be getting hammered on the boards). And only down 3. Ba had 2 big 3s. Milling has improved a lot on both ends

Really out of whack right now on offense. 9-0 Fullerton run with Pepper out. Offensive boards are hurting us

I thought Bakersfield was a much better team than either Poly or CSUN. Surprised they were down at the 9 spot

We really need to get Pepper going early if possible. We are SO much better on both ends when he is scoring. Tends to force and lose a little focus when the shots aren’t falling

I think we were rattled by the big crowd!

And we commit an early foul!

It’s gonna be a long 1:30, up 8 shooting 1-1

I expect we might run some zone to help with the big guys inside since we’re getting guys in foul trouble. They don’t shot the 3 well

Pepper can’t buy a bucket. I don’t like the feel of this game. Seems like we should’ve pulling away but poly is right there, 36-31

Offensive fouls are ridiculous

We look pretty bad here. Taylor has 14 of their 21?

We don’t have much flow. Fuller posting a lot. Even Pepper with a forced post (make)

Just turned on the game 19-17 with 4 to go. Lousy offensive start? Looks like Pepper and Manjon have a total of 2?

first time around, they were lights out in the first half taking a 37-27 lead. they shot 56% from the field, 57% from 3 in the first half, while we struggled with 36/22%. second half we even though we were fouling down the stretch. Need to get off to a good start tonight and get our shooters going. Anigwe had 20 which would be nice to repeat. Poly isnt a great shooting team (40%) and turn the ball over. If we stay out of foul trouble, I think our defense leads us to a victory.

The good old 8:30 tip off! It seems like we always have weird start times in the tournament. 5 1/2 point favorites. We really stunk back them the one time we played - hopefully chalk it up to COVID rustiness. Their big win over Irvine was a surprise. Let’s hope we rise up and get to Thursday

I would hope they have the waiver worked out since it would probably have been possible to add a Monday game vs a D2 team to pad the number

Isn’t this the mens? They look the same to me and pretty sure Fullerton isn’t #2

I had grandkids around so tried to follow here and there on live stats. Saw we closed to one point then drove the little ones home. Dropped them off, turned on the radio and we’re up 55-46 with 3:00 to go! I was less than half way home, a couple TOs, a couple 3 point plays, and we were behind for good! Ugh


The problem I see is a lack of depth. Les has no faith with the back ups beside Ba against an aggressive D. I think that’s why we struggle late especially if the front court has foul issues.

We can beat anyone in the tournament but we’re not deep enough nor have enough scoring options to string 4 in a row . Love to see at least two more wins

Back in it 37-35; if Pepper can heat up and we can keep Anigwe and Fuller in the court, we might pull it out

Looks like a lousy half for us, down 30-23

I don’t get it either. Announcers kept saying they could sew up at least a co-title with win, outright with Fullerton loss. Maybe big west considers it a co championship snd tiebreaker only used for seeding?

I think the big west is heading to Vegas to raise money for a multi chromatic webpage!

Fullerton has a lot to play for. They can still tie for first with a win, or possibly slide out of second with a loss. I expect a lot of defensive pressure from them especially when Manjon leaves the court ( they REALLY attacked DeBruhl last time). Have to shoot really well and get a (low foul) big game from Anigwe.

Probably won’t be able to watch tonight - grandkids are going to be around
