Jen Gross said the same thing, oldschool, in the Enterprise article about the game:

So how did the Aggies (25-7) beat the Rams (25-9) Sunday, 58-57, to claim a spot in the WNIT’s Sweet Sixteen on Thursday against Washington State?

“I have no idea,” head coach Jennifer Gross said. “If you told me that Morgan would have zero points and foul out with five minutes to go, I wouldn’t have thought that we had much of a chance.”

Rachel Nagel is a warrior also. She came back into the game in the third quarter after suffering a gash on her shin that would require stitches after the game, and hit some treys that gave the team a big lift.

Beating CSU in their house is no easy feat. The Rams were 16-1 this year going into the game with the Aggies and they also won the Mountain West regular season title for the 4th straight year. With Morgan Bertsch completely bottled up and sitting with fouls, the Ags found a way to win. This is a really good win by the Aggies.

CSU coach postgame comment:

On the flow of the game and the fouls on each side...

"It was an aggressive basketball game. They were aggressive with the drive and they were aggressive in the post-up. We got them in a little foul trouble and they got us in a little foul trouble. We're used to having certain kids on the floor all the time. We pride ourselves in not fouling. We had to adjust. That's just the way the game played out today. I thought UC Davis was really aggressive in that fourth quarter; they really drove it at us and that might've been the difference."

I know the coaches must be exhausted but I hope they're following up on recruiting. Gotta strike while the iron is hot!

Nice video of the Aggies return celebration and a shout out to Rob Lowe from Coach Les:

It would be great if Rob Lowe would open his pocketbook and make a generous donation to the Ags!

Complete BS that shows just how much power the big conferences have!

I don't know if they recalculate the seeds after each game. If that was the case, as you say 6th, the Ags should get a home game. I hope it happens. This team deserves a home game. Unfortunately, I'll miss the game if we are fortunate enough to get it at home. I'll be in Florida and Atlanta until April 1st...darn!

Survive and advance! The Ags come back and hold on for a gutsy win over a very tough CSU team 58-57.

The Rams game plan almost worked to perfection. Their plan was to take Morgan Bertsch completely out of the game and deny the Aggies anything in the paint. They certainly accomplished that. Morgan ended up with 0 points, 5 rebounds and fouled out early. She barely played in the second half.

So the rest of the team needed to step up to live and play again and they sure did. Rachel Nagel went down with a knee injury when she slammed into the Aggie bench trying to make a save in second quarter. Then she hobbled back in the third quarter hit several treys to get the Ags back in the game and finished with 16 points. Kourtney Eaton and Pele Gianotti added 12 apiece and Marly Anderson filled in nicely for Bertsch with 7 points and 6 boards including a critical 3.

The Aggies are now 25-7 and will play the Cougars of Washington State at a site TBD. The Aggies and the Cougars have won their first 2 games on the road. WSU beat BYU 72-64 and Wyoming 68-67.

It would be great if the selection committee decided to give the Aggies a home game. The Cougars are only 14-19 on the season so, regardless of being a PAC-12 team, I think the Ags deserve the home court in this one. We'll see, the PAC-12 is a power conference with a lot more influence than the Big West.

Great win by the Aggies!

The Ags are just not getting after it on defense...

The Ags need to make some serious adjustments at halftime. The Rams defense has got the Ags completely out sync on offense and the Aggies are not playing with enough defensive intensity. CSU is playing Bertsch very physical and double/triple teaming her every time she touches the ball.

Two bogus fouls in the final minute on Bertsch by the same ref saddled her with 3 fouls. The first was a horrible call on Morgan for an offensive foul on a jab step. Morgan protested and the same ref gave her another foul moments later when there was barely any contact, if any at all, on the defensive end. Looked like pay back from the thin skinned ref.

The Ags are getting outplayed right now. They are losing the battle of defensive intensity and are not taking care of the ball. They look flustered.

CSU is doubling Bertsch on every touch and it's been effective so far.

From Bruce Gallaudet: Aggie Nation without Darius, Brynton and JT? Not yet, let's keep celebrating

As well as the Sac Bee covered the men's great run, I feel like they snubbed the women. The Bee didn't even mention the score of the Ags first postseason D1 win in Aggie history. They beat a pretty good PAC-12 team and they deserved coverage by the Bee.

Over the years a lot of Aggie fans have been critical of the limited, and some believe biased, coverage of Aggie sports by the Sacramento Bee, but I thought the coverage of the of the Aggies historic run from the conference tournament to the Kansas game was really good. The amount of media publicity generated for the university and Aggie basketball over the past week has been incredible.

Coach Les was right when he said that "this team put UC Davis on the map nationally and internationally," and you could not have asked for better ambassadors for the university than the players on this team each and every time a microphone was placed in front of them.

The coaches and players were phenomenal and the future of Aggie basketball just took a giant step forward.

The Sac Bee's Ailene Voisin on the Aggies historic run:

Excerpt: "In the end, after the heavily favored Kansas Jayhawks chased them back to the farm, the UC Davis Aggies were left with 13 glorious minutes inside the BOK Center, one stirring victory in their NCAA Tournament debut, and enough stirring memories to wipe away the tears."

Postgame interviews after the game.

Kansas starts at the 6:30 mark and the Aggies start at the 16:14 mark:

(Y) 100% agree with you Toke69. These kids put their hearts into it and gave us every ounce they had. Five tough games in 9 days, many hours of travel, interviews and hoopla galore and then they go up against perhaps the best team in college basketball this year to boot. What more could you ask from these kids? It's astonishing what they accomplished.
