I can already feel the all-nighter coming on...

CIRCUS Saturday night, booked.

I have 4 tickets available if anyone is thinking of going. Wife and I are there but two other seatmates can’t make it

What a strange week it has been. I wonder how all that has taken place and the change of venues will affect the teams. I know that it must be disappointing for our seniors to not get to be honored and end their Aggie careers in front of a packed house on their home field. We need to be mentally ready. Sac would like nothing better throw a brick into our playoff chances.

I expect a sluggish start since practice this week was off (probably a little more for them) A healthy Thomson makes their offense dangerous. Neither team will have crowd emotion to help/hurt them. I’m kinda expecting a weird game

Are there any good places to stay in Reno that are smoke free? My wife and I avoid anyplace that allows smoking and I don't want to trade fire smoke for cigarette smoke either!

reNO

True, but I'm glad the Sac State seniors will get to be honored on a neutral site instead of Aggie Stadium (awkward). Besides, can't we just do senior night celebrations when we host a playoff game?? :wink:

there is a place called Whitney peaks (or close to that) that is smoke free. No casino. Downtown. Never stayed

Spot on.

Thanks Mike, I saw that the Courtyard Riverfront is entirely smoke free also. We're going to drive up in the morning with some friends and are debating staying overnight or just driving home or maybe even staying in the Truckee area.

Please, please, PLEASE tell me we will bring the full Aggie Band-ah!

Its the casinos that are smokey. I always get a smoke free room. On the few occasions that i detect a smoke residue in the room, i just ask them to move me. Or light up, lol.

Besides, can't we just do senior night celebrations when we host a playoff game??

Great idea. Players aside, their supportive families deserve to see their sons recognized. I would hope a playoff game would pack the house. Should be on the road headed home when the announcement is made.

It will be interesting to see how many “Renoans” will show up at the game. A perfect chance to recruit kids from Nevada? :chin:

The series was so one-sided that Sochor said, “It’s not a rivarly until they beat us

Unfortunately they beat us last year.
How we ever lose to these guys is a mystery to me. Randy Wright never lost to this team.

have been off the grid a little today, any updates on video stream? Or TV? Busy with kids so can’t hunt around for answers

Roots TV?

I know it was supposed to be on eleven network but am guessing that’s cancelled as no mention of it. In the press release they said they were trying to figure out a video steam for the game?

Please, please, PLEASE tell me we will bring the full Aggie Band-ah!

I have heard that they are going--don't know how many, but I am hoping that it's the full band. They have seniors to honor, as well.

Wright wasn't a perfect QB, but we beat Sac a lot when he was here. 4 for 4?

OK..4 of us headed up in the morning. Got 2 rooms at the Courtyard Riverfront which is entirely non-smoking! Gotta bring home an emphatic W!!

Agreed, so why with a much better team did we lose to them last year?? Not talent because we dominated in the second half.
I don’t know if we gained so much yardage running in the second half because they were giving us the run because of their lead or if they just couldn’t defend it. Their record this year points to the later.

I missed this fine point earlier:

There are no concessions for Saturday's game. Nevada Athletics staff will allow outside food and beverages that are not in a glass container.

Thank you!

Variables too wide... will 500 or 5,000 show?

no D last year. We were missing a couple guys, and one of our key guys (don’t remember who) was out in first half with carry over spearing call. With him back, D settled and we were able to make the comeback.

TT had a huge 2nd half.
