Is there going to be room in the Chancellor Suite for a horse?

If nothing else, the chancellor will get a bigger space in the building so we can get rid of the terrible ‘chancellor’s club’ tent on the north berm

It'd be nice if it was bring your own keg friendly in the Suites. Full bar? Food spread would be? If all these had options, man that'd be well organized and worthy of Aggie dollars.

AST suite!

Doesn't say much without the balance sheet.

From todays IGNITE update:

Provide high quality training and competition venues that support championship programs
ELS architecture and urban design has delivered the final concepts for our facilities master plan. Internal review with UC Davis Design & Construction Management is ongoing. Anticipated public release November 2025.

During the alumni zoom, a couple interesting tidbits came out. One that stood out - it was mentioned that the Washington payroll was $30M in NIL. Plough echoed what was said here - the gap between schools like us and the elite is bigger than ever. Apparently, the number of large differential games this last weekend (can’t remember the criteria) was historical.

the loss at USD is a bit of a shock. Poly beat USD up the first week. Torreros ran for nearly 300 yards but only passed for 94. SUU stats were skewed the other way, throwing got nearly 325 and running got 80 or so. Hopefully a chance to get our run game going and get our heralded TEs in the mix.


I don’t think Cal Poly is ready to challenge for the Big Sky Championship this season, but I think they are definitely improved and will surprise teams this year.

I'll be missing the next two games because my wife and I will be in Japan. I hope the Ags will be 3-1 when I next check in. Go Ags!

I find it irritating that analysts keep touting the five returning O linemen, when one is not going to play until later in season. Porotesano is a red shirt freshmen who played in two games prior to this season. ( I don’t know why the team does not classify anyone besides transfers as a redshirt-whatever, makes the team look older than it is,)

FWIW. "FCS and Southland Conference member UTRGV (University of Texas Rio Grande Valley) will make its football debut in 2025" - new stadium, suites sold out, 10K capacity.

Glad we don't need to spend big money for an indoor practice facility. NDSU new addition.

I hadn't realized while watching the game that we were resting a good number of starters in the 2nd half (beside Pinnack). Good for the long term health of the team....not so great for the point differential!

“Teddye Rookie 4th round pick out of Cal” hurts my soul though….

Hahahah, I think these cats read this message board and will probably have something next time.

Hireanother Associate AD to handle that. Or, can't Athletics Comms ask a few basic questions in advance?

There are quite a few things that cost nothing and that show some degree of planning and prep that Rocko has not mastered.

The Hornet fan forum is curiously quiet as well other than blaming the "homer refs" for their loss.

I hope this experience makes us tougher and ready to bring it for our next opponents.

I hope our athletics can one day in my lifetime compete at this level…

Nice drive. Lots of positives. Let’s get a stop now - we’ve been close the last two drives

home opener, elite FCS team, no other sports options, and top matchup.

Kind of wish we scheduled one of these non P4, FBS teams. All look pretty beatable

Tarleton State looks legit like a Top 4 team this year:
Blanked Portland State 42-0
Beat Army 30-27
currently beating the piss out of Mississippi Valley State...

If they smoke Central Arkansas next game, watch out for those guys - I think they are one of those programs, especially in Texas, that looks to be FBS in 3 years.

...

Bryant University currently has a 1 point lead on UMass in the 4th quarter...

How long to get a facility upgrade? Three years? The MWC is prime for UC Davis right now, football maybe a year or two away, but crazy how this is looking right now for the Aggies.

We need to be FBS. Wake up the giant!

They looked better with Rashada out!

What I find a bit ironic about this game is that on an academic level UC Davis and the University of Washington are equal in that both are among a rare number of large state universities that generate a high level of research, grant the doctorate, have a medical school and a law school. This is a subcategory of the Carnegie 1 classification, yet on the football field this is a mismatch. I haven't researched this, but I think UCD is the only public university at this level with an FCS football program.

After three weeks of football, the MWC and New Pac teams are all really bad.

It isn't a trip to Reno without the longshot gamble, a self-stewing sweat of shame, and a few moments of lifetime regret.
