Suck it Cal

I've never been much for school rivalries, but Jenny and I decided to trek up to Berkeley this Saturday to support our basketball team in one of their biggest games of the season against Cal. It basically was a must win game for both teams - both were on the bubble, Cal much more so since they had lost most recently to UCLA, while Stanford was coming off a heartbreaking 2OT loss to Gonzaga, after having built an impressive resume with wins against Washington, Washington State, USC, and UCLA.

About 150 Stanford students were there for the game and we were loud! Stanford was definitely hot tonight, demolishing the Bears 90 to 71. The best part was being the loudest group in Haas Pavilion, as Cal fans could only watch in silence as their team got manhandled up and down the court. The win definitely made up for getting our ass beat in football and definitely cemented my loyalty for Stanford men's basketball.



Here's a view of the game from our nosebleed seats. As you can see, the fans tried to distract the Stanford players on every possession. Didn't work. Fools. Safety School.
