    Aren’t we all just part of a simulation? A pale shadow of our ancestors who mad things with heavy hot stuff?

    This all about the tractor has a familiar ring to it.
    There was an active Ag mechanics club that looked after the thing but since disbanded. They had some early gas tractors too. The steam engine wasn’t really a tractor. It was like a portable steam engine to power all sorts of mechanical functions.
    I don’t know if actually having something hot, with fire and steam is acceptable in North America any longer. Too risky.
    If they could locate the tractor they might simulate the engine whistle with compressed air or something.

    Do you think Maggie the Aggie has received any pointers in fitting her hat so it stays on at a gallop? Maybe Lan Larson could provide advice. Might be the hair though.

    would have been nice. They were going to Brown until the coach left.

    Did you ever come across any indication we were interested in the Hatten brothers? Kind of right up our alley. Good enough to get into an Ivy, and in Arizona, an area we have been successful recruiting.

    Sounds like a bad idea
    I like former players or coaches on the broadcast. Usually they dumb down their commentary so it’s pointless but there is always a chance that they’ll make a cogent observation.

    But they make too big a deal out of the fumble on 4th and 6. The fumble didn’t cost them more than a yard. Not really a turnover, other than a turnover on downs

    Right . On that pass interference call on the screen pass the game broadcast team, particularly the play by play guy seemed to be focusing on whether the block occurred behind the line is scrimmage; that’s beside the issue. The line of scrimmage relevance relates to whether the pass crossed the line of scrimmage. If it does then the offensive pass interference rule applies. The receiving team can’t impede defenders from defending the pass, same whether behind the line of scrimmage or not. The defender knew it was illegal immediately because he pointed at the offensive player who interfered.

    In the game this spring the only defensive starter they had out due to COVID was a safety.
    Gilliam got 146 yards on 26 carries. So they’re front seven didn’t dominate us last time.

    They had three offensive linemen out but their fans think the offensive line along with the secondary are again the weakest areas of the team.

    They have a 273 pound all big sky fullback/TE that they apparently use on defense to a limited degree. Has made one big TFL but it was against Simon Frazier. Scored on a reception and run against us this spring.

    When I watched the Weber game again you can see the defense stepped up in the late third quarter. Announcers had an interesting observation about Weber’s that their last three drives averaged just 16 yards and ended with punts as opposed to long drives earlier in the game.
    And conversely our last four drives went 69, 63, 23 and 56 yards.

    Bottom line is that based on all 2021 performances only Cal Poly appears at this point to not to be a threat. Even Northern Colorado beat Northern Arizona.

    The Idaho fans talking about our schedule were looking forward, they feel our schedule to this point was the toughest in the conference, they have a lot of respect for Weber.
    They have little respect for the teams we face before EWU They don’t know about Idaho due to schedule

    is the press conference posted somewhere?

    i may have missed it but I don’t think we have had people express that Hastings should start over a healthy HR. I think some have made the observation, with some evidence, that HRs accuracy was not at its usual level as the game progressed. My personal opinion is that It wasn’t just hitting his head on the turf that caused whatever physical symptoms he experienced, but the combined result of a lot of hits he took in the game. Just a bit earlier he was knocked out of bounds in a way you would expect to cause whiplash. I even think that had he been fresher his head wouldn’t have hit the turf on that dive. I think he was trying 100% with an empty tank.
