    any viewing parties in the East Bay? Don't think we can make the trip up to the Grad, but I'd like to watch on a real TV with some other fans.
  • MBB 12/5: Aggies (2-6) at Northern Illinois (4-3)
    i was listening off and on to the radio broadcast, and following via Live Stats. Didn't hear anything from Scott Marsh when I was listening, but i didn't turn on the broadcast until late first half.

    No Gonzalez last night. Was that mentioned in the broadcast?
  • MBB 12/5: Aggies (2-6) at Northern Illinois (4-3)
    I was thinking about the shooting : if the other three starters went 16-20 from the field we STILL would have been below 50%. That’s a lot trips (17) down the court without a bucket

    Shot in the mid 30’s. Not sure what we were in the first half, but it was pretty bad in the second. Hard to win when two of your top (expected) scorers go 3-20! Yikes

    odds show NIU as 8 point favorites. tough matchup for us, unless we are on fire from the field (and free throw line!!!)

    Anybody here planning on the grad Saturday? My wife and I might make the drive up
  • How long do Coach Hawk and Coach Plough stay?
    you have to work 5 years to vest in the retirement and the pension is calculated as (average salary)*(years of service)*(age factor). that age factor for recent hires tops at 2.5% at 64. so, even with 10 years of coaching, that pension isn't a huge amount. he's too late in his career for the pension to be attractive; however, the 'Savings Factor' that UC now offers is pretty sweet.
  • How long do Coach Hawk and Coach Plough stay?
    I think Dan is here for the long-haul for all the reasons listed above. I can see Plough moving on to a FBS job, maybe a OC. He set records down at NAU with Cookus, and has put up some spectacular numbers here in a very short time. He has ties to Davis, but a move up would be appealing. If he does leave, I think little Hawk would be the likely successor.

    i was telling a buddy, we should fair catch EVERY kick. use the new kickoff rule to our advantage and take over at the 25. same as punts. in the cold, i worry about turnovers in the kicking game. hard to hold on to the ball in damp, 30-degree weather after a full-speed collision.
  • FCS Playoffs Quarterfinals: UC Davis @ Eastern Washington v2.0
    I got the impression home and away were the same. Seems fair. There were a number of players who would normally be suited up hanging around the student tailgate. I was told it was due to playoff rules
  • FCS Playoffs Quarterfinals: UC Davis @ Eastern Washington v2.0
    i believe there are NCAA restrictions on roster size for the playoffs (we had fewer suited up last week than for a normal home game), so i don't think we'll be bringing any extra players.

    did i read the ESPN schedule correctly...the NDSU game is on at noon EDT? 11:00 kickoff local time? that's pretty early!

    Thomas SHOULD have scored at the end of the half on that shuffle pass. that was a really creative call with the motion and he would have waltzed into the endzone but we missed a block. again 'this close' to blowing it wide open.
  • FCS Playoffs Round 2: UNI @ UC Davis
    i agree; he runs really tough between the tackles, but has the patience to find the seams. Gilliam is REALLY good at the off-tackle run. he almost put the game away with 2 or 3 10+ yard runs on that last drive (make the FG and its over). Thomas has also really improved in the passing game, both as a receiver and protector. I'm guessing they feel a bit more flexibilty with Gilliam, so they stay with him a little longer.

    looking back....we were 'this close' to blowing that game out. Doss had his hands on a ball in the endzone on the first drive (TOUGH catch, but one we have come to expect of him) and we settled for FG. And, we couldn't get it into the endzone after that incredible catch before the end of the half. get both of them, and its 24-6 at the half with us getting the ball. I know they were lamenting their INT's , but the first one of ours should have been caught and led to a scoring opportunity (they missed a LONG field goal, so credit our D). the 2nd INT led to one of their redzone INT's, so kind of a wash.

    i know there's some 'IF's' there, but if ONE of those had been TD's instead of FG's, we'd have been in a position to turn up the heat on defense in the 2nd half (instead of the run-first approach we had to play, leaving the flats open). but, its a WIN!
