Around SBN: Clippers Need To Realize That Spurs Are The Anti-Grizzlies

Cal v. Washington State 10.24.09 Fourth Quarter Thread

Use this thread to discuss the Cal v. WSU 10.24.09 Fourth Quarter.  I'm sure it's a taut, close affair featuring back and forth failure by both schools.  Listen to Joe Starkey's impressions of the game after, seemingly, watching it through a funhouse mirror here.    For those who don't want Starkey, this should hopefully work too. And don't forget to vote in the CGB Insta-poll.  GO BEARS!

Because we gave up 17 to WSU.
Because we let WSU have it’s best offensive production in two years

In other words, Go Bears!
