Hey Portland ,you attending the PSU game? Several of us are going, happy to buy you the first beer or glass of vino :).

NCagalum The red, artificial turf at EWU is the ugliest field in all of college football

Amen

Looks like Lehigh is shuffling their OL around compared to what they did during the first 2 weeks.

From what Ive seen with Cal Poly, they are legit this year. I hate the triple option :). I was supposed to be out of state for home coming. Doing my best to change those plans.

Blue's wife works in Silicon Valley and I have been told that she actually commutes there in a private plane from the UCD airport. Los Angeles would be a tougher commute. I was raised down there. I can't imagine anyone in their right mind wanting to live down there now. The traffic is so bad, even during non commute hours, that it literally takes hours to go short distances. I was down there a few years ago. Had to travel 9 miles to make dinner reservations in Santa Monica. And I know all the back roads to "beat the traffic." Still took me 1 hour 15 minutes to do 9 miles. No thank you. Quality of life in the Davis area is much better.

I think we might find that Cal and USD were better than we thought as the year goes on.... — SochorField

I totally agree. USD was way tougher then I expected. But as Dr. Mike pointed out, we just couldn't pull away from them which would have put them in a "must pass" situation. Once their run game got going, we just couldn't stop them with consistency. I was very disappointed in the amount of time their QB had to make his throws. We have got to do better on D to stop them at the line and pressure the QB. I can tell you right now that Barriere would have eaten us alive Saturday.

Were we out coached in this game?

Unclear what that looks like but probably would not be welcome on campus.

Well, you all would be welcome at my tailgate with open arms!

Well, back to being a Raiders fan, lol.

So what is the time frame for this new band, or musical ensemble?

Reasonable article in this mornings San Diego tribune.

Just now got back in my hotel room after a huge scare from the scrappy Torreros. Ags looked brilliant at times, and sloppy at other times. Why we ran 3 running plays in a row in the red zone and got stuffed each time is beyond me. Too many “cute” plays which resulted in us coughing the ball up. USD is well coached and I think they got some of their plays watching Jr from Cal. Their Martinez was a hard running back. Back to the drawing board.

Now its time for a Lyft ride and a big margarita somewhere.

It’s hot down on the field but both teams have to play in it. Seems like a game of momentum. Ags need to come out strong and take control. Jake seems off to me, but they are putting a lot of pressure on him

BTW, I heard last night that the game is sold out. Im sure glad I bought my tickets in Davis before heading south. Who would have guessed a sell out? Maybe they have a small stadium.

Good morning from San Diego. It’s a beautiful day in S. California. And it’s game day!

“USD’s home winning streak in jeopardy against scholarship school from Big Sky Conference”

These guys like to play the scholarship no scholarship card. I don't recall that we focused on that during the DII days.
Go Ags!

And let’s not forget SD wins the Patriot League every year and is a regular in the playoffs. I think Dr. Mike nailed it, “No turnovers, get ahead early and pull away.” We dont want them to get momentum at home. Look for them to take a lot of deep shots. Our secondary needs to step up and essentially do what Cal did to us.
Packing bags now. Go Ags!

Secondary will be tested on Saturday. — AggieFinn

So will theirs :).

Maybe the bossy cow cow sent Galindo over the edge :). Without the Band-uh to carry on tradition, we will need a thorough cheering guide, here’s a start:
