Let's be real

Expecting the team to be perfect for every half of every game is unrealistic and unfair, especially early in the year.

This WILL happen to Duke this year when they stop playing cupcakes at home btw.

Some people have to realize that we are not going to be undefeated and win every game by 50, and neither is any other team.

We’ve lost 13 out of our last 28 to non mid majors. Try pretzeling that into something positive

Ok I will...

5 Elite Eights
4 Final Fours
2 Nation Title appearances
1 National Championship

Only Coach K and Jay Wright have more titles in this time frame and Cal has more Final Fours than both.

Also, the Fox/Bam/Monk team was ****** out of a Final four a few years back. We all know that game was a screw job.

Sorry this isn’t about 5 year plus years ago.

ok

We were unprepared to face a team that depending on how big east play shakes out its really wide open this season, shu is a middle tier team that will be on the radar for the ncaas

In seasons past nova was head and shoulders above the other nine, Xavier had a marvelous regular season in conf last year...this season I feel there 5 teams that could win or tie for regular season title they although in the end game what matters is getting to match and having a path to succeed and advance; some of you guys take your on going success for granted; I grew up watching college hoops and remember the unforgettables and laettner shot and the pitino years; to me if pitino never leaves for nba czar placement he is still at uk doing Things bigger and better than coach k and you have 6 titles or more since 90

Powell didn't touch the ball on last possession Nelson drove middle kicked to mcknight who drew volume kicked to Thompson who shot faked nick Richards back to Lexington and then when cale got the pass he faked to get the last rotated defender out of the way and Richards was too far away to make a real difference

Where did I say he touched the ball on the last shot?

The Malik Monk team was the year before last, not 5 years ago.

Last years team would have been in the Final Four if not for PJ missing a ton of free throws.

Do you really expect perfection every year? At least with Cal we have a realistic shot at hanging a banner.

A realistic shot is making the final four. Haven’t done that since 2015. You never had a realistic shot if you lost in the round of 32 and sweet 16

I never comes down to a single reason.
