I went to grad school in Boston. This should be so much fun. I'll be there!

Wilson to Sac and Cooper to LMU makes me wonder if they were unhappy here and just wanted a change rather than a move up to a higher level of competition?

SF, you are so right about QBs at UC Davis. I go back to the Bob Biggs era. And I have seen Davis come out with great QBs over the years. I think we only had several Great QBs. I think I can name several.
How anout.Kevin Daft, Scott Barry, Akari Jones, JT O'Sullivan, Miles Hastings, Jim Speck, Mike Moroski, Ken Obrien AND several more who all were great QBs. It seems we always have a superb QB. I never worried about this position. We will be just fine whomever Plough chooses.
It was like listening to other people at
K about UC Davis needed to replace their QB who graduated and this was a huge question mark in Davis' success last year. All we could come up with a guy who was a great QB. This year,
I expect no difference just another great QB.

Yes I do, absolutely. Pinnick had the same experience to open 2025 as any of these three guys do in 2026. The only thing I am the least bit concerned about really (aside from TE depth) is trying to get too cute or throw the ball two much when/if they can grind someone.

The Analyst has a recently updated 2026 preseason ranking.
Davis is number 5, behind the Montanas, South Dakota State, Illinois State, and just ahead of Rhode Island. Familiar teams.
Idaho State is the only other Big Sky team in top 25

During the playoffs - we had a nice little general spot on the south end of Biggs Field. Everybody could park where they were parking, and you could mobilize your tables and covers and kegs and food and grills right there...all were welcome. Let's keep that tradition going I think. Loved that. Bring some consumables for the cause if you show too.

Ags defeated Hornets, 3-1, in baseball this evening. This brings the 2025-26 Causeway competition to a close with the mythical cup remaining in Davis, as it should.

See y'all in Cambridge.

This is an intriguing matchup if it happens. Probably looking at a touchdown or less of separation on the scoreboard. High quality, FCS playoff-caliber opponent. A chance to play at the venerable old Harvard Stadium - priceless. Academic opportunities with the trip to Boston - take a couple extra days. This is a nice little opportunity in my opinion.

Family local.

i think they are referring to the Causeway Cup? Baseball game is the final event that counts.

Got the UC Davis Athletics email and its a bit dishonest to say that Causeway isn't happening anymore for baseball. There's a power disparity in football between FCS and FBS but Baseball doesn't work that way. The Ags play Norcal teams from all conferences all the time. I wouldn't be surprised if they play Sac next year or the year after.

Me popping into this thread excited to talk about a wonderful trip I had in England filled with friendly people and great romps through bustling and scenic city streets:
