It looks like a futuristic, space rocket on the launch pad right now with the scaffolding still in place...pretty cool!

Here’s a panorama of the crowd during the second quarter

Big plays consistently all night vs. Southern Utah.

2 Sacks
2 TFL's
7 tackles - career high

Those numbers are like Oregon vs. Portland State numbers.
Man, SUU has some work to do defending the run (so does Davis).

Man, I do not have a great feeling right now. Sorry to be a buzzkill. It was a beautiful night, tremendous support, and we won. However, I left with too many questions (like "what is my password?" that's why I'm now Pacifico2). My biggest concerns at this juncture, in no particular order: rushing defense, QB inaccuracy downfield, rushing defense, coverage miscues, and rushing defense. They basically ran one play down our throat all night...

Fitz' interview was honest. "When you play bad in two out of three phases, you're not going to win the game, Spencer."

Water tower looks great

On to Weber

Great video guys! Love hearing from the fans straight up - best talk on game day is in the tailgate.
Maggie this year like every year is quite the stunner.

Awesome video! Great work guys!

Really enjoyed it!

Well done fellas. Despite being out here in Colorado, this helps me feel connected. Hope to see some Aggie fans travel for the NCU matchup. If yall like Kettlemen City, you’ll enjoy Greeley!

Can someone explain to me why Vargas has two mouthpieces he doesn't use.

Weird visual, yes.

Or they should come to the Idaho game. Moscow is basically Davis with snow.

thanks y’all! Great to share all the different aspects of gameday.

SUU HC Fitzgerald de-briefs UCD game

He claims there was no way 17k people were at that game..

Well, I couldn't individually count them - but by late 1st quarter, that was the fullest I've ever seen UC Davis Health Stadium...it's too bad the crowd wasn't a bit more lively. Best crowd ever at the Big A was 2018, vs. Idaho State, crazy overtime thriller - everybody was jacked and into the game, so much fun. Obviously, the old fans at Toomey were much louder and rowdier...and at times, not being cool, but they were very loud that's for sure.

Haha well put

I wonder if his previous game in Cedar City vs. NAU looked like the announced 3,084......or maybe more like 1,500?


If you are a HC in the Big Sky, its best to leave the attendance conversations alone. Its tough sledding (unless you are Montana or MSU).

He claims there was no way 17k people were at that game.. — davisguy52

Their coach said that Davis "lied...told a fib" about the attendance. He went on to say that schools inflate their attendance so that it will help with recruiting because kids want to play in front of big crowds and the big attendance numbers also help with getting corporate sponsors. He thought we had around 9000 and the host of the show thought it was 11,000...not sure why their estimates are more "factual" than ours...

It was really interesting to hear their right guard and the coach talk about the battle in the trenches and how it is much, much more about various techniques and "hand violence" than pure power straight ahead. That conversation starts around the 20 minute mark of the video.

Early in the first quarter Fitzgerald might be close on the 9,000 estimate. But into the second quarter, i believe the 17,000 figure. I always assumed when your ticket is scanned as you enter, it counts the body. I’ll ask Josh on Saturday. And btw, no way we would cheat on the numbers. That could have some major ncaa ramifications.

A comparable crowd in terms of filling a stadium was the crowd we had at the Toomb when we played Reno, and beat them. It was standing room only and the west side, the student side, was loud and rowdy. That was one of the most exciting games i can remember.

On the other hand, 17k is about 60% over official capacity. It does not appear logistically possible to fit 60% over official capacity.

Who knows if 17k is accurate, but comes off as sour grapes

Coach comes off as a bit of a dick in this video im sorry. Dude is like "people in nor-cal are smart and no way 16k were there" after saying facilities were dodgy in spots (waiting in line for a bathroom without urinals?) . I know its his sense of humor but he just comes off as salty. He also said he thinks it was 8k people there... which is just not true.

Sounds like a guy who isn't a fan of California/Californians in general.....that was the vibe I picked up.....

Fitzgerald has opinions about things he doesn’t understand and is proud of it, e..g. The Mercer game no decision circumstances and the crowd here boosted by students that didn’t stay until he looked around in the third quarter.
He is also.defensive about his education, otherwise why mention N Cal people as being educated. Everyone is educated these days, some people just didn’t learn anything.

I think the 17k was high - probably had to estimate the number of freshmen coming into the building. But it was larger than any crowd I’ve seen. 14k might be more realistic.

The number I know are correct are 1 and 3…..SUU’s record which should be most important to the coach. Why the heck was he paying attention to the attendance announcement when the game was still in the balance?
