Sorry I missed this game. I left early to drive to a H.S. playoff game about 70 miles away.

CAL is gonna pull this out and I’m happy for them. Monday’s Oregon/UCLA game just got more important.

I really feel that Cal would be a dangerous team if they just had a couple more guards. They basically have Asha Thomas as a PG with some wings.

Stanford finally scores, A. Smith with the and-1. 76-66.

 

[nwhoopfan]

78-66 32 sec. left. Thomas now has a game high 25 points. McPhee has been stuck at 24 for quite a while (earlier box scored showed 26 but then got changed). A. Smith has 20 but only 7-21 FG.

Stanford calls off the dogs, no more fouls. Gottlieb calls a TO so Sr. can get a round of applause on Senior Day.

78-66 final. Good win for Cal. They had been 0-fer against ranked teams for about a year.

K. Smith w/ 14, 11 for Anigwe, 10 for Brown.

Stanford seem like they're on a roll recently so this is a mild surprise.

Charlie has them is a four seed but I assume he expected them to win this game as well as the games against the Washingtons. I think they still deserve a four seed and hosting for the first two rounds but they could've made that a lot easier with a win.

Charlie Creme's seeding is for the birds.

Can you explain? I think he does a decent job, with occasional surprises.

He has Tennessee, Missouri, Georgia, and NC State hosting (top 16). Maybe one of those SEC teams, but not all 3 in the top 16. And absolutely not NC State.

whats wrong with NC State?

Actually nothing is wrong with NC State. They are a good team, but I don't believe their schedule is as strong as 16 other teams that would be in the top 16. NC State did beat Florida State so they should be in the conversation. If WolfPack win out (including win over Notre Dame), then I would change my view on NC State hosting 1st two rounds.

Not for the Cardinal?

I agree Stanford deserved a 4 seed, but with the results of this weekend, not sure how to seed the PAC12 at this next reveal? I'm just thankful Charlie Creme doesn't do the seeding for the NCAA Tournament.
