Good points, Riveraggie. We took advantage of what we thought would work. It's our pass defense that has me concerned against the pass heavy Big Sky teams who can score quick and often.

My thoughts exactly too.

I don't think we should be ranked in the Top 10 until we at least beat a Top 10 opponent. We might move up a spot this week.

Ags rushed for 380 yards which is 16 shy of the all-time record of 396 against Southern Oregon in 1952. Pretty damn good!

It looked like the crowd thinned out at halftime. Did the students start leaving early?

Official attendance: 9865, so not capacity of 10,800.

The EWU game was crazy. EWU led 55-21 at the half but got outscored by Western Illinois 35-7 in the second half. Eric Barriere was 31 of 45 for 542 yards and 6 TD's and the Western Illinois QB was 31 of 46 for 425 yards and 4 TD's.

EWU racked up 754 yards of offense and Western Illinois had 643 total yards! Talk about a shootout...geez!

Northern Arizona 21 Arizona 19 Final Huge upset!

60 points is a big number offensively but our pass defense is suspect and we could get torched by the big guns in the Big Sky. I don't think we are a Top 10 team yet.

We’ve had 3 sacks and 5 tackles for a loss.

We’ve already given up 27 points to a team that has scored only 10 points in their first 2 games.

I missed the Aggie scoring but I’m not impressed with what I’m seeing now.

EWU 55 Western Illinois 21 at the half
Cal 21 Sac 6 at the half
Oregon State 42 Idaho 0 with 1:55 to go in the 3rd
Montana State 52 San Diego 10 with 6:56 to go in the 4th
Northern Colorado 7 Lamar 7 with 10:21 to go in the 3rd
Portland State 7 Western Oregon 0 with 11:30 to go in the 2nd

Jake has played great in every game he has been in. If he continues to put up better numbers than Mitchell, then he should be the starter at some point, IMO.

Ags lost to Cal 14-11. 7-1 now for the season with #1 USC later today.

The men's water polo didn't lose to SJSU...they won 11-10 and are now 7-0 on the season.

I with you on this as well.

I think you meant FCS Games..(you can edit the title).

On paper, we should win solidly but, as we all know, TO's, penalties, missed assignments, dropped passes, broken plays and more can give life to an underdog team. We have to play smart, execute and avoid mistakes no matter who we are playing. We have shown that we can do that very well so far this year and I hope that Saturday will be no different.

realtimerpi.com predicts the Aggies will win 45-6. They also go on to predict a 9-2 season at this point in time with loses to Idaho and EWU.
