Coming into today’s match with fUCLA, Ben Braun’s Bears have won the last two meeting in Westwood, at historic Pauley Pavilion.

Was there any inclination that it wouldn’t happen again? Sure there was. Cal’s coming off an upset of Oregon, it just beat the Beavers in overtime, and it seemed that the Bears finally found ways to win.

But against the Small Dickeless Bears, it was not to be this time, as fUCLA took back Pauley tonight.

For an instant there, it looked like Cal was actually going to pull it off. It had the lead early. The Dickless Bears didn’t look like the No. 4 team in the country and Braun’s Bears were poised for an upset.

Then something happened. Just like in “Cal’s earlier lost to fUCLA”:http://clog.dailycal.org/159/bears-denied-upset-of-fucla, the Baby Bears stopped dicking around and the Southern Branch pulled off the win.

Well, we guess this means the fairy tale’s over. Any shot of making the NCAA Tourney (it would have been a miracle anyways) died tonight. At least there’s still the NIT. Take two of the next three games, make a nice little run in the Pac-10 tournament, and hey, Cal might be seeing the postseason.
