Nice gains!

Alright game getting ready to start pretty soon! GO AGS!

I like variety, but I gotta admit that my favorite combo is still the gold helmets, blue jerseys, and gold pants. The team really seems to like the blue pants though.

Aggies going with the white jerseys and pants this game.

Gameday! Go Ags!

Luckily we do have SDSU under our belt for that. They had size, speed, and great athleticism. Let them think the speed is going to decrease and then burn em.

Most of the prediction sites have it as a pretty close game from what I have seen. Most of the them have PSU by 4-6 points. Idk, I want to be positive about this game, but we have just always seemed to struggle against the Vikings and they look like a really solid team. Keys to the game will be shutting down the run and containing Eason within the pocket. If we can force them to throw the ball I think our chances improve. We also are going to have to find a way to crack their defense. Their secondary is a strength and we are pass happy so one of those 2 things are going to have to break.

This is absolutely true. I'm another Band-uh alumni and at games it's up to each member to pay if they want food and drinks. We would often speak to band members of other bands at the few away trips that we made and they were often horrified that this kind of stuff wasn't provided. The Band-uh still wants to be that crazy band that is at every game no matter what, unfortunately the university has made it impossible to do so.

Glanville?

That's almost certainly why the band-uh was small. It usually is until school is back in session.

The kids want to go on the away trips, it's an issue that comes from above them.

I doubt they are going Finn. I don't actually know one way or the other, but they have a tendency to not make the away trips anymore. Basically just Sac and CP.

I don't disagree with you, I was just pointing out that that is how the voting tends to work. Like I said, if we can beat PSU this weekend I think we will start getting a little bit more attention.

Yep, in another thread I was talking about this. The voting has a lot to do with reputation, initial placements, and a tendency to not want to drop or raise teams drastically in a short amount of time. I'm not sure if USD is quite at the same caliber that they were at last year. Lost some key skill players, their star TE is out with an injury now, and their QB so for has not been playing at the high level that he was last year. If we can somehow knock off PSU this weekend I think we should be getting some looks. That's a big if though.

Not really. Basically they are happy with the win, but recognize that they need to get better as the teams that we are going to be playing from here on out are getting better as well. Hawk doesn't understand how we only get 2 votes in the rankings, but USD gets 16.

Next episode of the coaches show starting in about an hour.

It can be viewed live on the UC Davis Athletics Facebook page. Guests this week include Keelan Doss and Nas Anesi.

As just a QB, I would say Eason so far has been just okay for a freshman in D1. Only has completed 50% of his passes and is averaging 150 yards per game (again against FBS defenses). What makes him dangerous is his mobility. If we can find a way to contain him on the ground and make them beat us with more traditional sets I think our chances of a win improve immensely. That's easier said than done though. Defense was bending but not breaking for several drives against USD. They are going to have to step up big time this weekend.
