Poor coaching and execution by Cal. Kudos to the Ducks! Excitement!

Yep. Gottleib didn't respond to the situation at all.

Cal went from undefeated (13-0) to last place in the Pac 12 with a 3 game losing streak. Granted there are 5 teams who are tied for last but still... Not a good stretch for them. The next 2 games are against Colorado and Utah, but given the strength of the Pac 12, not a given (no team is worse than 10-5 in the entire league except for Washington State at 8-8 but they are 3-2 in the league). The Pac 12 has to be one of the better leagues in the country, but not sure how hard their OOC schedule was.

Cal should make mincemeat of Utah and Colorado - they are poor teams and their only conference wins against an equally weak Arizona and USC

Cal wins games on being athletic. They are not as well coached as some think. /C Anigwe is very good in the low post. They dont have a good pg(were in the running for Ionescu but lost out to Oregon).
On the final play, ball in bounded with under 3 seconds, you cant let a player get the ball and also be able to get a straight angle to the hoop. She should have been made to get the ball and go on a longer path or have to not face the basket when getting the ball. IMO. There is a lot you can do and a lot you can defend on that play. Oregon "did" and Cal "didn't"
