That roughing call on Sam late in the game was absolutely ridiculous.

Bob Dunning reported that the Ags will receive $700,000 for playing the Huskies.

that money at Cal probably goes farther than higher amounts elsewhere. Bus trip and connections with Bay and UC employees are worth so much but cost little.

I agree that I prefer MW games since there is a chance you could win or keep it close, though in-state games against old Pac 12 teams is okay with me for recruiting and off field reasons.

As a fan of both Cal and UCD, I personally hate when they play each other due to my shared fandom but I like that the money stays in system and keeps travel costs low.

I'm really excited for the game at Wazzu. I'm 1 hr and 15 mins away and we try to go to either 1 UI or Wazzu game a year depending on opponent or game time. Would like to also see Wazzu this year but the schedule doesn't work for me with the first two games at night, then sold out Apple Cup, and then no home game until the end of Oct when it starts getting cold.

Well, as far as JV football goes.

Thanks for the correction. Sometimes I get too excited about my "discoveries" and don't look them over carefully. I did find a football site that had the Aggies winning 30-13, but dismissed it as just incredible. The more credible sites had no data yet. Live and learn.

i asked when i was up there at a practice (AgAlum was with me, so maybe he remembers better) and I don't remember a specific target date. Sounded more like 'its coming, just working on some details'.

Davis program has gotten stronger since the last meeting in 2019. (So has NDSU's if you can believe that).

I think Home and Home's like this are fantastic.

Tough OOC schedules coming up:
2026 SMU
2027 UCLA
2028 Washington State, NDSU
2029 UCLA, NDSU.

What haven’t you liked from a Freshman QB with all young weapons? Looks like the coaches said they game planned for wrong defense and he had to play on the spot.

I think that’s the plan for this next phase, minus the seating. Focus on suites. Thd trip to South Dakota was a revenue eye opener. They apparently more a ton from their suites with helps offset their not great attendance.

I think the plan is tied up with the central campus over how it’s funded.

I'm seeing UW favored by 12.5.

Weber State renovations....

Very nice.
Thank God we no longer have a track.

my son's freshman year. we were watching from the sideline near the endzone the Bison scored to take the last lead. We went back to his dorm (Web-Em) and he shouted to his roommates 'I can't believe we lost that F**ING game'.

walked in the common space to his roommate saying 'uh, Brian, these are my parents'.

might have been the first and last time i heard my son drop an F-bomb!

Nice to get the Bison coming to Davis!

This will look much like Oregon State a few years back. The QB is electric and they have one of the best backs in the Big Ten. They aren’t great on D.

Why not start Harper this weekend. Change it up and see what he can do. I understand the money games and the chance to play FBS teams like the Huskies. But there is so much to risk with a promising Aggies group this year. I would have much rather seen a game with Stanford. Go,Ags!
