Around SBN: NFL Roundtable: Which Draft Pick Is Most Likely To Bust?

Cal vs. Oregon 09.01.24 Open Thread

Your University of California Men's Basketball team takes on the Ducks of UC Eugene today at 3PM.  Trying to bounce back from a terribly disappointing loss to Oregon State on Thursday night and snap a 2-game losing streak, the Bears get a pretty favorable opponent to do it against in the Ducks.  Now, obviously, Thursday night reminds up that no Pac-10 team is a pushover, but if you're gonna get healthy, at home against a team still winless (0-7) in the conference is the team to do it against.

Here's your gameday viewing information:

Cal Bears v. Oregon Ducks
Saturday, January 24, 2009
Haas Pavilion, 3PM

TV : Comcast SportsNet California
Radio : KYOU 1550 AM

This is your open thread for the game.  Use it wisely!

You ain't got it like Marshawn got it

Cal women also playing the Ducks (in Eugene, obviously)

up 4 in a critical game for them. Oregon, ASU, UCLA and USC all are good enough to pull an upset against the Cal women, so this is the type of game that is dangerous and they must win if they want to unseat the ‘furd. They’re up 4 about halfway through the first half.

Also, UCLA and Washington in a very good game

UCLA got off to an early lead, but Washington narrowed the gap and it’s been back and forth the rest of the game. Washington is playing against UCLA how they should have played against us – going inside constantly and drawing tons of fouls – but UCLA is a very steady team and won’t let Washington run away with it unless fouls become a problem.

This UCLA-Washington game is a barnburner!

Washington may be the best Pac-10 team this year.

They're really not good at hitting jumpers though

It’s a major problem

I can't figure Washington out

Their guards are so fast, and they have a great inside game. They seem like they should be much better than they are. They even look that good often in games, but then you look up and it’s tied. I don’t get it.

Women up 24-10 now

10-0 run – they seem to have shut down Oregon on defense.

Crazy halftime stats

31-10 Cal

One player for Oregon is 4-8 from the field with 8 points.

The rest of the Ducks are 1-19 with 2 points. 1 FOR 19!

I think the ladies are playing good defense today

Mike Montgomery should be put in the brig

For not playing Max 40 minutes a night. We’d clearly be undefeated.

Why is it a 6 point game?

Is this a sign of bad things to come from the AtQ vassal state?

Definitely.

Although I do like this Dunigan kid. He is the strongest freshman in the Pac by far. He’s just been getting in foul trouble all year.

Of course. And we get the LA schools, Washington, and Furd at home for the second half.

even if we get swept in LA

it is still a successful first half of Pac-10 play.

They made all their shots and Houston missed some free throws.

On Cal:
“They have a legendary quarterback coach and head coach in coach Tedford. The style of play that his offense has at Cal fits my style of play and I think it would be a great mesh. He’s done a lot of great things at Cal and I think I could help take them to that next level.”

Houston's offense is terrible

They pass back and forth from each wing to the top of the key for 25 seconds and then throw up a three. Arizona is definitely going to win this.

Unfortunately, I missed the game. I’ll catch the replay, though. I’m just glad we won and that the women also took care of business.

more turnovers than we wanted, but Randle was in nice control. I don’t really know where all the TOs came from
