We got this!

Good halftime adjustments?

I'm glad this site lets me use my voice.

Thia game is a long way from being over. Rams had 2 TDs on 2 big pays. Ags had two red zone failures. We got this.

The defender didn't let Dobbins get up.

Both Ds now blitzing a lot.

Yes, the definitive view would have been if the camera was right on the end zone line.

That's what I'm talking about!

Pinnick needs to settle down and make better decisions. Time to stop futzing around.

That DPI looked like Gbatu would have scored so it was a good defensive play as it turned out.

It looked like Pinnick could have run the ball in, but failed to see the defender in trying to pass it.

Broadcasters don't know the rules on a fair catch. You gotta catch the ball. No touchback.

Illinois State must have played really good defense. I see not only did they hold NDSU to 179 total yards, but the Bison only got 6 first downs and were 2 of 13 on 3rd downs. If the Ags win today they might have their hands full next week.

Deleted, comments moved to a different thread.

Since it is no longer "early" with the Big West having started conference play, this will be the last post on this discussion thread. UCD is one of five schools with a winning record. The rest are all the usual suspects. The lower 6 are also who we thought they were going to be. UCI is not doing as well as one might expect having lost 4, but to very strong teams and they easily beat UCR.

Anyway, this is how things stand before the second league games tomorrow.

Hard to say why Coach Les seemed so agitated, but it's clear he doesn't like to play in Hawai`i for a few good reasons, including the fans. I just want to note that the official attendance last night was only 4219, well under half of capacity for Stan Sheriff Arena. On the other hand, they were quite loud. Who knows what they might have been yelling.

Was the broadcast the one from Hawai`i's local sports station? It would have had Artie Wilson and Kanoa Leahey. They're real professionals and Leahey has been doing Rainbow basketball for 7 years taking over for his father who used to team Wilson since the turn of the century.

What was totally unexpected was that the Ags would lose this game due to the difference in 3 point shooting. UCD: 4 for 15, Hawai`i: 7 for 16; 9 point difference. The guys kept it close, though, and I'm optimistic that we'll beat them in Davis.

Yes, Hawai`i in the second half has gone to their inside game which was something I noted in the preview post. I was surprised they didn't do that more in the first half.

Even the Hawaii`i broadcasters questioned a couple of those fouls on Rocak. The refs are calling it too close.
