I like the fact that this team lost to Purdue Fort Wayne (really?) on Dec. 21. We got this, have to avenge that 4OT travesty last March.
Is Rytis hooping tonight?

Go bears!

Rytis is on the floor, but not suited up. Sucks that every season at the beginning of the conference schedule we are down at least one starter due to injury. This year it's Rytis. Anyone know what his issue is?

Not close to 6,000 tonight, rain didn't help. Go Bears!

CAL favored by 3.5

(Furd beat Louisville 80-76)

Go Bears!!!!!

ESPN2 game. Tip at 7:05

Notre Dame beat Stanford, and Stanford beat Louisville today!

Gd ball mvmt by ND, got to play better team D

I don't get why Dort is out defending the perimeter. Just seems like we're asking for fouls and/or to get burned.

Also, we've taken 4 threes, three of which were ill advised.

Cal's shooting 27%…. Aargh. Nowhere to go but up.

****ty start...again.

Camden 1 for his last 13

Pretty stunning… once again proving there is no victory transitive property.

These slow starts are brutal to watch. Shooting has been awful the last two first halves

Bears are standing around so much on offense. There is no motion at all. Too much one on one.

What is happening!!???

Our offense has regressed so much. No purpose. Aimlessly passing it around the permeter. No off ball movement.

I want to believe in MM. I really do. But lordee....

(I will point out that they can create and we can not. Talent.....)

The lack of ball movement and reliance on one on one moves has been ridiculous

ND 5-9 from three… we're 1-11… that's the story.

A breakout game for Ilic.......OK

Our only hope is that ND should be up 20. They aren't closing the deal. Not punching us through the ropes. They still may.

Figured the team would come out hot after the putrid performance earlier in the week. Looking like crap again.

That plus our defense has been poor.

We are so untalented. No way a P4 player should be missing these wide open threes. They don't.

Whatup Bell? Spanked for no D?

Graphic said we're second in the acc in 3 point shooting. Why does it seem none of our guys can get off a shot?

ND has 6 team fouls, time to stop chucking up 3s and get fouled in the paint. We have size on them, LET'S GO!

Well the tourney hopes were fun while they lasted

This team is just far too shallow and lacking in athleticism/top-end talent to do anything of note this season

Before the season started, I said I'd take 17 wins this year given what our roster looks like. That would obviously be massively disappointing given our 12-1 start but it looks like that's around where this team will settle.

Really hope our NIL situation gets straightened out this offseason because not even sniffing a tourney appearance in year 4 would be a tough look for Madsen…even given the admin/donor challenges he's faced.

indeed. It's like he basically said "ok, if you guys are just going to suck that bad, I'll just do it all myself."

Camden is a shooter. If he's now going to be a misser then we've got big trouble.

B I G trouble

I still think Bears win this game. Ben Braun wins this game.

What value does Kelly bring to this team; but not sure what alternatives are....we are not capable of playing good BB in the ACC....

Bell has 3 rebounds....so there's that.
