  • FCS Playoffs Round 2: #9 Rhode Island (11-2) @ #8 UC Davis (8-3)
    ….and rice fields and agriculture. Something outsiders don’t think of. I grew up in the Central Valley so know all about the tule fog.
  • FCS Playoffs Round 2: #9 Rhode Island (11-2) @ #8 UC Davis (8-3)
    My app shows fog now and seems like tomorrow. Yuck. Flying in tonight from DC so not looking forward to spring in pea soup or trying to watch a game in that. Reminds me of the 1978 d2 playoff game against Eastern Illinois. Gotta wonder about the wisdom of playing an early morning or evening game this time of year. Will not be a good look on TV.

    I have an extra ticket for Saturday’s game as my brother who I was going to meet cannot make it. Section 121. If you are interested DM me and I should be able to transfer the ticket.
  • Pinnick honors
    To be honest, I don't think he sticks around Davis after this year. No inside info, but I can see him transferring to a bigger program in a couple weeks. I think the QB helm goes to Eason next year.

    I highly doubt either one of those eventualities occur. Pinnick is an unusually mature guy ( not big on social media as I understand for one) and I think he knows he has more development to do before jumping ship and I suspect he has a bit more buy in with loyalty. Sure there will be folks in his ear, but moving on in a couple weeks - highly unlikely.
  • Coaching Carousel
    yah, I knew that - just commenting on the title that normal people would not associate with being the head coach. I guess the endowing folk require a sexier title.

    SDSU field was covered in snow. The high was 21 degrees. Didn’t look like the attendance was more than about 2500 at Youngstown.

    I watched most of that game. Tennessee Tech was completely outmatched. Tennessee Tech had 24 yards of rushing and Visperas did not look good. LOS dominated in second half by Nortj Dakota. Maybe that will mute those who were so high on Tennessee Tech.

    Evidently he’s not a coach, he’s a “director of football”. Maybe a fancy title in lieu of SEC type pay. Otherwise it sounds more like a GM.

    UND dominating Tennessee Tech. 24-6 in Cookville. UND o-line wearing down Tenn. Tech dline. UND QB out with concussion.

    Maybe the committee was right.

    Looks like game time has been changed to 7:00 pm? My eticket changed to that and it was mentioned on TV. Perhaps due to a move to ESPN2?

    Rotating running backs isn’t the same negative impact as rotating QBs, and its a position where players get hit every carry, run routes and block, so more likely to need a breather.
    Agreed. If you look at Montana State (although acknowledging they are more run heavy) last year they had Scottre Humphrey, Julius Davis, and Adam Jones. Davis was out much of the year with injuries, and when Humphrey hit the portal to New Mexico, this year they still had Davis and Jones. Relying on one solid running back is fraught with potential problems in my mind as that is an injury prone or over-workload prone position.

    Link is up to purchase tickets.
    Thanks MTB. Just got a couple (one for Bay Area brother) and will be flying out. Haven’t been to an Aggie home game since Toomey Field days. Good chance to see the new home. Hope the weather doesn’t go south for the game

    Big surprise to be seeded and get bye.
  • 71st Causeway Classic: UC Davis vs. Sac State
    at the end of the video they cut to Marion press conference. Launched into a bunch of excuses including how all the players that had NFL scouts looking at them didn’t show up/ were hurt or one thing or another. Not a good look.

    Riddick has really stepped up after loss of Rex.
  • 71st Causeway Classic: UC Davis vs. Sac State
    It’s past happy hour hear but I’m celebrating with a victory martini (gin, shaken, not stirred). Great win and especially for what could be the last causeway.
  • 71st Causeway Classic: UC Davis vs. Sac State
    yes fans on the field. Mostly students which is neat.
  • 71st Causeway Classic: UC Davis vs. Sac State
    Defense came up big at the critical time.
  • 71st Causeway Classic: UC Davis vs. Sac State
    wish I could have been there in person. Great crowd and enthusiasm that last drive
  • 71st Causeway Classic: UC Davis vs. Sac State
    you didn’t come to woodland and see the game in person did you Idaho?
