The sideline store is run through BSN, which as I understand is basically a print on demand operation that can print hundreds of university logos on a catalog of base items. So I think it’s going to be the same couple logo designs superimposed on a wide variety of apparel items with a printable block and not so much specialty designs that need setup per item. But perhaps better pricing due to no minimum stock or physical storefront.

I haven’t been to the bookstore in a few years, but after it changed to UC Davis Stores, it sure seemed like the quality and selection went down and prices went up as they oddly pivoted to selling more general merchandise and tech at the expense of less apparel and imprint merch. No idea why people apparently go there to buy skincare products and headphones at inflated prices.

Nice.

the north and south bleachers were temporary each football season. Might have even been rented. They didn’t come back after the final season. The east and west bleachers were torn down in 2017 with almost no notice due structural issues. At the time people called athletics to inquire about getting a piece but it was too late to organize a plan. An uncharacteristic misstep that Kevin Blue underestimated the nostalgia and interest. There are a couple park benches at Aggie Stadium made from Toomey bleachers but otherwise everything was hauled off. I don’t know in this case exactly, but pretty typical for demo companies is to bid with the assumption that they can retain the scrap value, in this case a good amount of aluminum that probably helped offset disposal of the treated lumber.

A game like this, although early in the season, helps establish a baseline of where Valley and Big Sky stand in relation to each other that year.

The game looks like it will be broadcast on Big Ten Network (BTN), which is owned by Fox Sports. If you have cable, you may already get this channel. Otherwise you can do a free trial of Fox ONE app, Hulu Live TV or Fubo, if you have not previously redeemed a free trial. Just make sure to cancel if you don’t intend to keep those services because they are expensive. There is a B10+ streaming app but that appears to be for all the minor sports not on the mainline cable channels, so I don’t think that will help you here.

I was listening to the radio stream for the Gould era. Marsh wasn’t so much doom and gloom, instead they would just stop talking about the game so DK could wax poetic about random Aggie and 49ers players from 40 years ago.

some hats have cattle, some have a case of bubba burgers from Walmart.

A win is a win but it wasn’t clean. Maybe Utah Tech is better than advertised but I’m also not convinced we belong in the top 10 right now. But there has been so much turnover in FCS, hard to know where anyone stands.

The feed issues started at midnight eastern and are affecting multiple espn+ games I’ve flipped to. Probably some nerd updating a server didn’t realize football was still live.

Looks like ESPN is having technical problems. Other games are scrambled too.

my TV ran out of memory to support onboard apps so in the offseason I got an Apple TV box. It’s overpriced but also works without any fuss. I also fired Spectrum when another provider laid gigabit fiber to my house for half the price. I didn’t realize how much crappy cable company internet was causing things to just not work right.

apparently didn’t read the Ron Gould book “Upright: Nothing But Field Goals”

Fisher 66 yds for TD, like a hot knife thru butter.

Anyone else getting seasick from the shaky out-of-focus camera-work? It’s also weird watching a game with zero crowd noise coming through.

try exiting and reloading. The video is live.

SDSU has had a lot of self-inflicted pain. If they were firing on all cylinders it would easily be 35-0 right now. Sac defense is getting in there but the go-go offense is flat and Rashada looks lost. Florida should pay him out his settlement for *not* going there.

test it with a different game that is live like Sac State. If that doesn’t load you might not be signed in after the app updated. It might look different on different devices, but on a smart TV look on the left side of the screen go to Settings to confirm you are signed in with “My Disney Account” and then confirm under subscriptions that you have “ESPN Select” included either by itself or in a bundle. It is OK for TV Provider line to be blank in this case.

The conversation at the buzz board is sober - best comment “I drank the kool-aid enough to watch this sh** in person”

an interesting rules question, I’m not sure if we would be allowed to start the game over on another date or if the option would have only been to play out the last 7 minutes.

exactly. The blue bloods of the Big 10 and SEC are trying to consolidate power and TV rights to push the ACC and Big 12 to the side, let alone leave any crumbs for the G5 conferences. They don’t want more mouths to feed and they don’t want anyone outside their club to be more competitive than planned. My guess is that eventually there may be a secondary playoff tournament akin to the NIT if there isn’t a more dramatic split in divisions.
