Cal Bears mens basketball podcast:

#1 The Cal MBB (3-4) trip to Boston College (1-5) has been canceled as a Cal statement said “out of an abundance of caution” neither school has registered any positive test for Covid 19. The game was scheduled for Dec 22 but now Cal will play a home game against Seattle University.

#2 Michael, Cal’s last game still a subject of discussion that incredible upset win over the USF Dons (5-3) I know you had a chance to see it when Makale Foreman took a three point shoot in the closing minute that won it for Cal.

#3 Taking a look at the game against USF did Cal head coach Mark Fox do somethings to tweak the offense and this is a team that didn’t panic but played up to the opponent and pretty much stayed with one of the best college teams.

#4 Cal has got some help from Grant Anticevich (18) and Matt Bradley (17) the Bears will certainly rely on them this season to provide offense and scoring.

#5 Cal has added two home games Dec 19 vs. CSUN and Dec 22 against Seattle University it has to be a relief for all involved that Cal doesn’t have to make that cross country to trip to Boston.

On the Cal Bears podcast with Michael and Morris:

The Cal Bears (3-5) Justice Sueing started off this season on fire but cooled off in recent week and then recovered on Saturday night against the San Diego State Aztecs (3-5) in a 89-83 win. Sueing led the Bears with 23 points Morris and Michael talk about Sueing’s turn around.

Sueing was a key factor in the Bears win over the Aztecs, Morris and Michael talk about once Sueing is lit up he stays fired up during a game. Speaking of fired up after the Bears were handed a drubbing by the USF Dons (8-1) in a 19 point loss last Wednesday on their own home floor the Bears came in fired up to get back in the win column.

Morris talks about Cal’s Grant Anticevich, Conor Vanover, and point guard Paris Austin and how these young players will be a huge contribution to the Bears offensive line up.

On the Cal Bears basketball podcast with Morris:

#1 Justice Sueing started out the season on fire, but cooled off in recent weeks; but on Saturday night against San Diego State (3-5), Sueing led Cal (3-5) with 23 points. What’s been the big turnaround for Sueing?

#2 Sueing was instrumental in leading the Bears to a 89-83 win over San Diego State. Is he one of those players who once gets on fire stays lit up for a whole game?

#3 After getting stomped by the USF Dons (8-1) last Wednesday by 19 points. it looked like the Bears rallied around each other and really made things happen on Saturday.

#4 Cal’s Grant Anticevich, Conor Vanover, and point guard Paris Austin are playing more efficiently. How important were they in this win on Saturday night?

#5 Cal Poly (3-5) is next up to play at Haas Pavilion and the Bears hope to keep it going this Sunday the 16th with a 3 PM tipoff. Morris Phillips will have complete Cal basketball action.
