Causeway is always a must-win, but I think Davis is already in as a top-15 team with 7 (8) wins.
In 2023 Sac was a top-10 team, lost 2 of its last 3 games, of course the last game to Davis.
Still got in. Committee just can’t allow themselves to leave ranked teams out, and let unranked teams in (like Davis was). Davis won 3 in a row to end the season that year.
Potentially perfect reversal of the 2023 situation.
How Sac's 2025 Season has played out:
@ South Dakota State (7-4), L 3-20
@ Nevada (2-8), L 17-20 (Sac should've actually won this game, Pick 6 late 4th, dumb)
vs. Mercyhurst (5-6), W 49-28
vs. Central Arkansas (3-8), W 45-16
vs. Cal Poly (3-8), L 24-32
@ Weber State (3-8), W 55-27
vs. Northern Colorado (3-8), W 40-35
vs. Montana (11-0), L 35-49
@ Eastern (5-6), W 35-13
@ Portland State (1-10), W 52-24
vs. Idaho (4-7), W 23-20
It all was the result of the two picks which gave MSU 14 points. The game could have been tied in the 4th quarter and that last TD might not have happened. I feel bad for Pinnick and hope he can shake it off next week. He accounted for 304 yards and that pick six looked like a miscommunication with the receiver. No way was he passing to the DB. The game the Bobcat twins reminds me how much we miss Rex and Porter Conners. If they had been in this game, it could easily have turned out very differently.
I'm giving up on this one but I won't stop watching. I learned my lesson in 1972 when I left the Bob Biggs comeback game against Hayward. In this case, tho, the Aggies will need more than 16 points. I just hope we can score a TD to make it respectable.
Crowd has emptied out and they do allow you to leave and re enter. There’s an opportunity to take advantage of a less noisy stadium in the third like Plough did for UM last year
