I think we win the first game. Then we play a 1-seed in the next game. Don't really like the matchup with any of them.

I said no but coming off that loss last night I think we could win the first one then get big heads and flop the next one. Best case scenario round of 32.

I call this team the Inconsistent Cats.

They have yet to put together a string of good games.

I have no reason to believe they can become consistent enough to make a deep run.

They could win the first game by 20, barely squeak by, lose a close one, or get blown out. Just no way to know.

They are the Unpredictables. Regardless of who they play, there’s no way to know how they will play.

I don't feel good about this team playing a power 5 team in the first game. If that's what they get ....they're gone.
I'm hoping for Utah State or something like that.
Put Off having to play Texas or UCLA or most likely because they hate Cal.... lol Purdue... for a game. 🥴
I think Purdue will beat us by 30. 2nd round.
We suck!!!

It's just all so frustrating. Livingston has seemingly regressed over the past few games. Not sure what's going on with him. Cason hasn't been all that special for a while. Maybe it's his injury issues. I don't know. But, why doesn't he attack the rim a lot? At best, he typically just settles for an outside jumper. I love this team but this is one of the most frustrating teams of the entire Cal era I do believe.

Obviously depends on our draw tomorrow but this team is going out 2nd round elimination. With a good draw sweet 16 is the ceiling.

I almost bought tickets for Louisville when they became available last May or June. Thankfully I didn't.
I made the mistake of buying SEC tickets early on so won't make that mistake with NCAA even if we're in Louisville region. I will admit I have enjoyed watching some basketball in Nashville though even if we're not in it. Going to championship tomorrow to root for A&M.

My heart says yes but my head says no. Want them to win that first round game just as I do every game but I just don’t see it. This team is just too inconsistent and has too many issues to overcome. Then again they could end up looking like world beaters in the first game to follow up the clunker against Vandy in the SEC tournament lol.

Why the hell not get excited? And if I get disappointed so be it. Rather look forward to it than sit here and *****.

Can see us winning a tough 7/10 matchup that none of us think we have a chance to win and then get to face a 15 seed who upset their 2. After a day of crowing and thanking the gods for how big of a break we got and that we will be cake walking to the sweet 16 we then proceed to lose to the 15 seed for our 2nd consecutive tourney exit to a 15.

Trashing the dog is stupid. I’ve got 2 and their family. Trash Cal and leave the dog out of it. Dogs don’t choose their owners, so move on.

Maybe people need to calm down and wait to see what the bracket looks like first.
Hell we could draw the Lady Cats and get beat under our current Coach. Big game Cal keeps his record against anybody with a pulse intact.

Team hasn't won 6 in a row all year. Guarantee there are some truly thinking they will though.
Who has predicted them to when it all. I myself think they can go to the elite 8 if they play and are coached to their potential.
