From a purely economic perspective, it would have benefited Stanford to have USC in the NCAA tournament. (And it benefits us to have all Pac-12 teams who are actually in win as many games as possible.)
On the other hand, some things are priceless. I wonder if the Trojans make the NCAA tourney if Daejon Davis's buzzer beater rims out?
In any case, I'm happy that our men get another home game. I'm especially rooting for Michael Humphrey to come back from his way-below-average Pac-12 tournament performance.
If there's one thing people have learned in Berkeley, it's that you can't put "Cal football" and "Rose Bowl" in the same sentence. The words just don't fit. You'd be better off linking "covered wagons" with "Mars travel." (Bruce Jenkins, Cal '70, SF Chronicle, Nov. 11, 2017)
