“It’s all about how you finish at this point, but this is a great opportunity for us,” Hawkins said. “I like where we are and how our guys have responded all year. They expect to win, but they’re not devastated by a loss or overconfident with a win.”

Hawkins did say that redshirt freshman Miles Hastings will take over the starting quarterback role from Hunter Rodrigues.

Hastings was impressive in his first start two weeks ago at Cal Poly when he hit 28 of 34 pass attempts for 210 yards and two scores in a 24-13 win.

Noted UCD offensive coordinator Cody Hawkins, “Miles deserved to play and he played well. I’ve always said he could start for a number of teams and we’re very confident when he’s
in there.

“We just hadn’t been very efficient throwing the football and hadn’t been getting the results we wanted. Hunter was disappointed, obviously, but we know he’s going to contribute
going forward.”

I watched that show also. Amadou Sow is not only an outstanding athlete but he's an impressive young man as well.

Is driving 156 mph while under the influence and tragically killing someone in a crash any less egregious and criminal than being under the influence and just randomly firing a gun and killing an innocent bystander? I'm sure that the penalty for randomly killing someone with a gun is more severe than vehicular manslaughter while under the influence but I don't see a big difference between the two. Both are deadly, criminal acts in my opinion.

The stage is set and all the marbles are on the table in these final 3 games with the playoffs in the balance. Like Hawk says, i hope we'll just be the best version of ourselves that we can be in each time we take the field.

That game would get my vote. The #2 NDSU at #9 SDSU is another monster game. Lots of good match ups this week with playoffs implications.

Unfortunately, you'll need to subscribe to ESPN+, Russ, if you want to watch the majority of the Aggie games this year. Otherwise, it's Live Stats and KDVS.

Oops...I edited my post...

When I've seen her play before she seems tentative. I hope that will improve.

This was a very strange game. CSEB came out red hot and shot 77% in the first quarter then cooled off to a icy 12% in the second quarter. Then the Ags stretched the lead to 57-36 after 3 but then went 0-14 until there were only 34 seconds left in the game. The Aggies only scored 5 points in the final quarter all on FT's in the final 34 seconds. Very odd game...

62-54 Aggie Final.

For sure.

It appears that the PG position is a work in progress for the Aggies. Trpcic will be tough to replace. She was a wonderful floor general, ball handler and an assist machine.

The Aggies shook off the cobwebs in the 2nd quarter and sprinted out to 40-26 lead at the half.
The Aggie defense came alive also after allowing CSEB to shoot 77% in the first quarter, they held them to 12% shooting in the 2nd quarter.

Ags trail 22-18 after the first quarter. CSEB shot 77% to the Aggies 35%.

Where did Langi post that comment? Awesome confidence!!

“It was great to play in front of a road crowd and get used to that because we open our season on the road,” said Manjon, who has seemingly perfected the art of the reverse layup.

Les, too, was pleased with the opportunity to get some competitive live action.

“They played very hard and very physical,” said Les of William Jessup.

“That’s just what we needed. It was a typical exhibition game and it showed us that we have work to do. I really liked how we closed the game, and getting to experience a road game was a bonus.”

The Aggie website has nothing about the game but William Jessop has a full write up on their website.

"Credit to Davis because they are so tough," added Von Vogt. "They are going to be the best defensive team we play all year. They made it tough for us to score."
