USC

A record-tying seven programs from the “Conference of Champions” are selected for the Big Dance, how will they fare? Women’s basketball beat writers Kenzo Fukuda and Jane Kenny make their predictions.

Currently winless in Pac-12 conference play, Cal will take on USC at home for a three-game series.

The 3-24 Bears couldn’t even take back some pride from their trip to Los Angeles: USC and UCLA took turns giving their Northern neighbors a nightmare in Southern California.

Cal is 3-22 and has lost its last nine games. But the Bears will play it out — starting with two games in the City of Angels. The Bears will face USC on Thursday and then sit in LA traffic to get to Westwood for a faceoff with UCLA on Saturday.

Cal made a big splash in its last home dual meet of the season: The Bears drowned both USC and UCLA, coming away with two wins.

Swimming away from the defeat Cal suffered last weekend against Arizona State, the Bears will have their last home dual meets against USC and UCLA Friday and Saturday.

After going 4-8 on the season last year, Cal football is now preparing for its 2023 season following the release of the Pac-12 football schedule Wednesday.

In a game that seemed to be heading in the wrong direction, Cal was able to make a 5-point comeback in the last six minutes of the game to win the national championship for the second year in a row.

Bears attempt for their next back-to-back NCAA Championship; Cal will enter as the No. 1 seed and begin the tournament in the semifinals.

The Bears were better defensively tonight, but they could never click on the offensive end — no performance has been complete so far this season.
