Grant Huffman and AJ Hoggard each made four steals as the Commodores' total of 18 marked their most in a game since 1998 and is just two off a program record set in 1994.

Vanderbilt had its lead trimmed to 61-52 before forcing a turnover on back-to-back possessions, leading to fast-break layups by MJ Collins Jr. and Tyler Tanner to make it a 13-point lead. Tanner, who finished with 14 points, hit a 3-pointer a couple of minutes later for a 68-52 lead.
Andrej Stojakovic scored 17 points for California (2-1). BJ Omot added 15 points, DJ Campbell had 12 and Jovan Blacksher Jr. scored 11.
