Eaton needs to play. He was not just good, he was great. I can see trying him in the “ rush” position, but if that means he’s off the field for most plays it’s a mistake.

Riveraggie, I just rewatched the game (Bigskytv has replays) and Eaton was in for all but maybe 2 series. He was lined up as a defensive end (both sides) and I think in a bit of a hybrid position as he did drop back into coverage a couple of times. He looks like he has put on some weight (maybe intentional). I did see him get 1 tackle - he was at bottom of pile with a shoestring tackle so spotter did not see him. He may be getting used to a different position - he was not too effective at pass rush from that position but likely learning. Bottom line- he was in most of the game.

Aggies seem to be going with a bit bigger lineup including at linebacker. They have been rather small the past couple of years.

welcome to Tampax field at Roos stadium. Arghh is right.

hah. Yes. Got old. Making excuses all game long about missing personnel. Watching this first game, it seems the Ags are deeper than usual this year.

Rodrigues played super in my opinion. No mistakes and a very accurate and confident arm. Also he was able to run a bit and avoid pressure, something that was lacking with Maier. Getting Carson Crawford back is very very big. Hard to get all of the talented receivers in. D improved over time and Idaho QB looked confused and lost confidence at end. I guess he may not be the best QB in the league (I understand those were his words).

Victory Martini time.

I think ok to pass. I think the no field goal was to avoid blocked kick and return for TD.

I line blowing them out. And fantastic running by Larison and Gilliam.

Major pat miss.

yes he is. Made a move on that defender. Jock strap on the field.

That was a catch.

Dumb play no matter what. But Rodriguez is really firing the ball in there. I don’t think there will be a QB controversy

Is Gilliam being rested?

I maintain that the Ags lost the game at UND when he left for injury. He is a great possession receiver

Perryman burned.

Killer penalty. Second one of that type.

That ball did not hit ground.

Sure hope Devon King keeps hydrated. He is the best cover and tackler on the team.

I am. Pluto on tv. Announcers keep calling us cal poly.

the receiver Corp is extremely deep. Don’t know.

Considering everything not in bad shape going into second half. Too bad they didn’t score on that first drive. They will have ball at start of second half.
