The Golden Bears were the first men's basketball team from a power conference—defined for this purpose as a member of a Power Five conference or the Big East Conference—to start a season 0–7 (started 0–12) in the last 40 years. Louisville would match this feat three days later. Cal's record eventually dropped to 3–29.
